- 1 (15-ounce) can Libby’s pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.

- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the walnuts and chocolate chips, if using.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the pumpkin bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Slice and serve. Enjoy!
Notes
- For best results, use room temperature ingredients for a better emulsion.
- Don’t overmix the batter to avoid a tough bread. Mix until just combined.
- To keep the bread moist, store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
- Add dried cranberries or raisins for a different twist.
- Try a streusel topping for added texture and sweetness.
