Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup canned pumpkin Make sure it’s not pumpkin pie filling.
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour Contains xanthan gum.
  • 1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice

Wet Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9 x 5 loaf pan by greasing it with gluten-free cooking spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the canned pumpkin, baking soda, gluten-free baking powder, and salt. Mix until fully blended.
  • Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and well combined.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, then drizzle in the vegetable oil. Mix until integrated into a smooth batter.
  • Add the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon. Mix until just combined; avoid overmixing.

Baking

  • Spoon the batter into the greased loaf pan, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
  • Bake for about 50 to 60 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick; it should come out clean.

Cooling

  • Allow the bread to cool for 5 to 10 minutes in the pan. Carefully remove the loaf and cool on a wire rack.
