    Homemade Pumpkin Bread from 5DollarDinners.com

    You want to know what makes this pumpkin bread special? And soft. And fluffy. And just perfect?

    The yogurt, the coconut oil, and the butter. It’s a magical combination that makes the perfect pumpkin bread. Also, the lemon extract adds a nice citrus pop to the fall and pumpkin flavors. If you don’t have lemon extract, you could use lemon juice…but you won’t get the same lemon-y flavor throughout the bread.

    Happy Pumpkin-Bread-Baking!!!

    P.S. These are a great and simple homemade gift idea for friends and neighbors that also freeze well!

    Prep Time10 minutes
    Cook Time43 minutes
    Servings - 8 persons

    Ingredients 

    • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 tsp salt
    • 2 tsp baking soda
    • 1 tsp baking powder
    • 1 Tbsp ground cinnamon
    • 2 tsp ground nutmeg
    • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
    • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
    • 2 3/4 cups sugar
    • 1/2 cup coconut oil
    • 1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
    • 15 oz. can pumpkin puree, not flavored pie filling
    • 4 large eggs
    • 1/3 cup water
    • 1 cup plain yogurt
    • 1 tsp lemon extract

    Instructions

    • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Spray pans with nonstick cooking spray.
    • In a small bowl, combine flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and sugar. Stir and set aside.
    • In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut oil, butter, pumpkin puree, eggs, water, yogurt, and lemon extract. Blend until combined.
    • With the mixer on low, slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Scrape the sides often to make sure all the ingredients get blended in. When theyre combined. Mix on medium for two minutes until the mixture is light and fluffy.
    • Divide the batter evenly amongst the loaf pans. Place the filled mini pans on a large cookie sheet to make it easier to remove them from the oven.
    • Bake for 43 - 48 minutes. Disposable mini loaf pans take about 5 minutes longer than the stoneware pan.

      Is there an alternative for coconut oil? I don’t have any on hand, but have everything else and would love to make this today!

        You can use canola or vegetable oil in place of the coconut oil, Jess. 🙂

      This looks so good. When you say “mini”, what size are you referring to? I think i have 4 different sizes in my kitchen, and of course, I can figure it out, but . . . if you have time, please advise. Trying to figure out if the size you are making is adequate for a stand alone gift, or if these would be better nestled in the midst of other goodies. Thanks!

    I have a little problem. I cannot make a meal that costs more than $5. It’s unnatural, but my pocketbook thanks me.
