Ingredients

  • 2 cups (248g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (200g) packed brown sugar
  • ½ cup (119g) vegetable oil
  • ¾ cup (180g) pumpkin puree
  • 2 medium overripe bananas
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray (or grease and flour it).
  • Whisk together flour, pumpkin spice, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Stir brown sugar, vegetable oil, pumpkin puree, and mashed bananas in a large bowl (using a wooden spoon or spatula, or you can use a mixer).
  • Stir in eggs and vanilla, then mix in dry ingredients.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean from the center of the bread.
  • Let cool 10 minutes before removing from pan and/or slicing to serve.

Notes

  • Be sure to use pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie mix.
  • If you want to use spices (not pumpkin pie spice mix), use 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ginger, ¼ teaspoon nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon allspice (in addition to the cinnamon called for in the recipe).
  • Store bread covered with plastic wrap at room temperature. It should stay fresh a few days. You can also freeze the whole loaf or freeze individually wrapped slices.
