Step 1

Add ingredients in order recommended by manufacturer, or follow order listed in ingredient list. If using optional nuts or chocolate chips, they can go in now, or after the first mix cycle.

Step 2

Use the setting on your bread machine for non-yeasted breads. (Consult the manual, if you aren’t sure which one to use.)

Step 3

If your bread machine has a crust setting, select “light” crust.

Step 4

Hit, “start.”

Step 5

After the first mix cycle completes, use a rubber spatula to scrape any flour off the sides of the pan. Add your optional nuts or chocolate chips, if you didn’t add them earlier.

Step 6

Once your pumpkin bread has finished baking, carefully remove the pan with pot holders.

Step 7

Let cool for 10 minutes. Then, gently turn your pumpkin bread out onto a plate. Allow it to finish cooling; then, slice and enjoy.
