How to Make Pumpkin Gingerbread

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour mini loaf pans or a bundt pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together the brown sugar and butter until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the pumpkin puree, molasses, and vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour batter into prepared pans. For mini loaves, bake for 30-35 minutes. For a bundt pan, bake for 50-60 minutes.
  7. Let cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Optional: For a bundt cake, prepare a simple glaze by whisking together powdered sugar with milk or lemon juice until desired consistency is reached. Drizzle over the cooled cake.
