The most fluffy, moist, delicious, and fragrant pumpkin cardamom loaf
What ingredient do screams FALL more than pumpkin and spice? This pumpkin cardamon loaf is loaded with warm and fragrant spices as well as the natural pumpkin aroma. This loaf is moist, fragrant, and very delicious.
About This Pumpkin Cardamom Loaf
- This recipe has very simple ingredients, and the only item that you might want to purchase is the pumpkin puree. It is very important to use only Pumpkin Puree and not pumpkin pie filling. Pumpkin pie filling has too much liquid which will impact the result.
- When working on this recipe, I was looking for a more fragrant blend, and was happy with the ones that I could find in the grocery stores. So I came up with this spice blend to make this Pumpkin cardamom loaf more delicious and aromatic. See Spice Blends.
- This Loaf does not have the typical loaf surface that we expect to see. Instead, it has a crusty and crip top which comes from the cinnamon sugar that we sprinkle on top at the end.
How To Make This Loaf
- Pour the pumpkin puree into a bowl and cover it with a thick piece of toilet paper. The paper should touch the puree. This will absorb the excess liquid out of the pumpkin puree.
- Mix all the dry ingredients and set aside.
- Using the whisk attachment, whisk the puree, sugar, oil, and vanilla. only for about a minute.
- Add the eggs one at a time and whisk well after each one.
- Remove the bowl from the stand mixer, and use a rubber spatula to gradually mix in the dry ingredients. Mix until there is no trace of the flour mixture. Do not overmix or the loaf texture will be tough and chewy.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle the top with the cinnamon sugar mixture and bake.
