Ingredients

3 Large Eggs
15 Ounces Pumpkin Puree 1 can
1 Box Spice Cake Mix
2 Tablespoons Oil
2 Tablespoons Vanilla Bean Sugar or regular granulated sugar

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare 1 bread loaf pan 9 X 5-inch, or 4 mini loaf pans. Grease and flour ensure the bread will pop right out when cool. At least spray the pan(s) with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large bowl add the cake mix, pumpkin puree, eggs, and oil.
3 Large Eggs, 15 Ounces Pumpkin Puree, 1 Box Spice Cake Mix, 2 Tablespoons Oil
Mix until just combined. Don’t over-mix.
The batter will be rather thick. Spoon pumpkin mixture into 1 bread loaf pan (dimensions 9 x 5). Or 4 mini loaf pans. Fill about half full, the quick bread will rise as it bakes.
Sprinkle vanilla bean sugar on the top. If you don’t have vanilla bean sugar, you can use regular granulated sugar.
2 Tablespoons Vanilla Bean Sugar
If using the regular size bread loaf pan, bake for 45-55 minutes in the preheated oven. If using the 4 mini loaf pans, bake for 25 minutes.
Allow the bread to cool down at room temperature.

How to Tell if Quick Bread is Done?

Insert a toothpick, skewer, or cake tester into the center of the bread. If it comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs clinging to it, the bread is done. If there’s still wet batter on the toothpick, it needs more time in the oven.

Avoid Overbaking: Overbaking can dry out your pumpkin bread. Start checking for doneness a few minutes before the end of the recommended baking time to avoid this.
