A delightful spiced pumpkin loaf perfect for cozy mornings or festive gatherings.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
Greasing the pan ensures the loaf doesn't stick, making removal easier.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar and melted butter until smooth.
Using melted butter helps to evenly combine the sugar and fat.
Add the eggs and pumpkin puree to the sugar mixture and mix until well combined.
Ensure the eggs are at room temperature for easier mixing.
In another bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Sifting the dry ingredients can help prevent lumps.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to keep the loaf tender.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Tap the pan gently on the counter to remove air bubbles.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Check the loaf at 60 minutes to avoid overbaking.
Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cooling in the pan helps the loaf set and makes it easier to handle.
