Pumpkin Recipes
Fall is all about the pumpkin recipes for me. I just can’t get enough! While I love it in almost everything from pasta sauces to soups, baking with pumpkin is my favorite. It just creates such moist and delicious fall treats! If you want a tasty spin on the traditional pumpkin bread, you’ll love the added chocolately flavor of this pumpkin Nutella swirl bread. I may have eaten half the loaf before anyone even got home!
Pumpkin Nutella Swirl Bread Recipe
Pumpkin Nutella Swirl Bread
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 15 oz. can pumpkin puree
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp ground cloves
- 1 tsp cardamom {optional}
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup Nutella, warmed
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease a large loaf pan.
-
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and pumpkin.
-
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and spices. Gradually beat into the pumpkin mixture until mixed.
-
Transfer half of the mixture to the loaf pan and top with 1/2 cup of the Nutella. Repeat another layer of batter and Nutella.
-
Using a knife, cut through the layers to swirl together. Bake the loaves for 50-60 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes and then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Enjoy it on its own or serve warm with butter or extra Nutella.
Can I change up the spices?
I always love playing around with the spices for my fall baking recipes. Cinnamon, nutmeg, ground ginger, cloves, cardamom, pumpkin spice – I don’t think I can pick a favorite! Feel free to use a little less or more of the spices listed in the recipe – or substitute another one if you prefer. I especially love cardamom paired with chocolate and pumpkin.
How long does pumpkin bread last?
If stored properly, pumpkin bread will last up to 2 days at room temperature. For some reason, I find that it tastes even better the day after baking. Store pumpkin bread in an air tight container, wrapped in plastic wrap or tin foil, or placed in a plastic bag. {Personally I prefer the container.} To extend the shelf-life for up to a week, it can be refrigerated. Just be sure to keep it wrapped up or stored in an airtight container.
Can pumpkin bread be frozen?
Yes! If you want to make multiple loaves and freeze them you can totally do that. Before freezing, be sure to wrap the bread tightly with aluminum foil or freezer plastic wrap or place it an a freezer-safe Ziploc bag. If you want individual servings, slice the pumpkin bread after cooling, and wrap the slices individually before freezing. To thaw the pumpkin bread, leave it out on the counter for several hours or overnight. If you can’t wait, you can speed up the process by wrapping the bread in tin foil {be sure any plastic wrap is removed first!!} and put it in the oven at 250F for 20-25 minutes.
