Mini Pumpkin Bread with Cinnamon Swirl Recipe


Ingredients

Scale

For the Pumpkin Bread:

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 tsp baking soda

  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg

  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves

  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger

  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil

  • 1 cup granulated sugar

  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)

  • 1/4 cup milk

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the Cinnamon Swirl:

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon


Instructions

 

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour four mini loaf pans or line with parchment.

  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spices.

  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk oil, both sugars, eggs, pumpkin puree, milk, and vanilla until smooth.

  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Gently stir the dry mix into the wet mix until just combined. Don’t overmix.

  5. Make the Swirl Mix: Stir the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.

  6. Layer the Batter: Spoon a layer of batter into each mini loaf pan, sprinkle with swirl mix, then add more batter and another swirl layer. Finish with a final layer of batter.

  7. Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 28–32 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

  8. Cool: Let the loaves rest in pans for 10 minutes, then remove to a rack to cool completely.

Notes

Make sure your pumpkin puree is 100% pure pumpkin—not pumpkin pie mix. Also, don’t overmix the batter; it’ll toughen up your bread.
