Homemade Pumpkin Bread

As the seasons change from summer to fall, do you find yourself craving all things pumpkin? I know I do! And if you’re like me, you are going to love this simple and easy to make homemade pumpkin bread. This pumpkin recipe is full of pumpkin flavor and spices. Best of all, it also includes butterscotch chips that add a unique flavor. 

One of my very favorite banana bread recipes come from Joanna Gaines’ Magnolia Table Cookbook. We made Joanna’s  After School Banana Bread recipe so many times this summer! It was a huge hit with our family. I wanted to make something similar to this recipe, but I couldn’t find anything on the internet that had pumpkin this. So, I decided to experiment and make our own homemade pumpkin bread.

CREATING THE PERFECT PUMPKIN BREAD RECIPE

For this recipe I used Joanna Gaines’ Banana Bread recipe as my starting point. I began by omitting the bananas and substituted them for canned pumpkin pie mix. I then added some pumpkin spice to give the recipe the flavor of pumpkin pie. As we were making the recipe, my 5-year old daughter suggested that we add butterscotch chips to the recipe. At first I thought this might not work, but then I remembered my favorite pumpkin pie recipe is a pumpkin butterscotch pie. So, we added butterscotch to this recipe.

Baking this homemade pumpkin bread made our house smell amazing! Once the pumpkin bread cooled down my daughter and I enjoyed a warm serving as an afternoon treat. This recipe is also wonderful with a cup of coffee in the morning (it’s like having dessert for breakfast)!

If you are looking for a new pumpkin recipe to try this season, I encourage you to try my homemade pumpkin bread.
