This pumpkin bread is ridiculously moist with a soft, light, and fluffy texture. The loaf is sweetened with brown sugar and contains hints of pumpkin spice in every bite. You can add toppings, like crushed pecans and pumpkin seeds, for a crunchy texture on top.

The Best Gluten Free Pumpkin Bread

This baked good can be enjoyed for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. I recommend pairing your slice with a cup of coffee for the coziest fall morning!

First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. This will prevent the pumpkin bread from sticking to the pan. Also, it will help you easily remove it after baking.

Next, in a large bowl, add pumpkin puree, brown sugar, melted coconut oil, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Mix together until evenly combined.

Then, add all-purpose flour, pumpkin spice, ground cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt to the bowl. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients just until evenly incorporated. Do not over-mix.

Pour batter into the loaf pan. Spread evenly across the pan. Add your choice of toppings, like crushed pecans and pumpkin seeds.

Bake the vegan pumpkin bread for 60-65 minutes. After, remove from the oven and let cool completely inside the pan. Gently remove from the pan and slice the bread. Enjoy!

Do not use pumpkin pie filling. Make sure you are using plain pumpkin puree, not sweetened pumpkin pie filling. They both come in cans, so double check yours!

Use parchment paper. Line your loaf pan with a piece of parchment paper before adding the batter. This will prevent sticking and help you easily remove the bread from the pan.

Use the toothpick test. When you think the pumpkin bread is fully baked, insert a toothpick into the center of the loaf. If it comes out wet with batter, continue baking for another 5 minutes and repeat the test. If it comes out clean, your bread is done baking.

Cool before slicing. Allow the pumpkin bread to cool completely inside the loaf pan before removing it and slicing. If you slice the loaf too soon, you'll risk it crumbling and falling apart.

Yes! Use a muffin tin instead of a loaf pan. The baking time will be reduced to about 20-25 minutes. Use the toothpick test to determine doneness.

I have not tested this recipe yet with oat flour or almond flour. If you need a gluten-free option, I recommend using gluten-free all-purpose flour for the best results. My favorite brand is Bob's Red Mill 1-to-1 GF Baking Flour.

Although this vegan pumpkin bread is delicious all on its own, I recommend adding your favorite toppings! Toppings add texture, flavor, and give your loaf a more professional appearance. I recommend crushed pecans, pumpkin seeds, and chocolate chips.

The next day? Store leftovers inside a tightly sealed container at room temperature. It will keep fresh for 3 days. If you would like it to last longer, store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

If you would like to store longterm, tightly cover the pumpkin bread in cling wrap. Store inside a sealed ziplock bag in the freezer. It will keep for up to 3 months. Let thaw before enjoying. To reheat, bake or microwave until warm.

Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F and greasing a standard loaf pan. Then, in a small bowl combine a tablespoon of ground flaxseeds with 2.5 tablespoons water. Set aside to thicken.

In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, brown sugar, canola oil, flax egg and soy milk until well combined and smooth. Now add the flour, then sprinkle the baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves on top of the flour. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to over mix.

Pour into the prepared loaf pan, sprinkle with pepitas and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the loaf cool for a few minutes in the pan, then carefully transfer the loaf to a cooling rack.

The loaf will slice best when it’s given some time to cool, at least 30 minutes. But it will still taste good if you must eat a slice immediately!

Cream Cheese Filled Pumpkin Bread

I love this bread as is, topped with pepitas, but you can also get creative! Try adding chocolate chips, currants, raisins, cranberries, chopped walnuts, pecans or even some grated coconut.

Yes, this bread like most quick breads freezes very well. To freeze, cool completely first. Then, wrap it in plastic wrap, then wrap tightly in foil and freeze. You can also freeze slices of it, wrapped well and placed in a large freezer bag. Make sure to label it so you don’t forgot what it is!

This is seriously the best vegan pumpkin bread you'll ever eat! It's perfectly spiced, moist and easy to make in 1 bowl. Better than Starbucks, this will become one of your favorite Fall recipes!

This pumpkin bread is so easy to make, the hardest thing about it is waiting for it to finish baking in the oven! Especially with those delicious aromas wafting through the house.

Vegan Pumpkin Bread Story

The pumpkin flavor comes from lots of pumpkin purée. We didn’t skimp on the pumpkin, so the flavor is really delicious. And then we have all those delicious pumpkin pie spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger.

The first time I made this I went a little heavy on the ginger and cloves, it was still good but I knew I had to tone it down a little. Once I did the flavor balance of pumpkin and spices was just perfect.

The batter for this vegan pumpkin bread is thick! So don’t be surprised and think I left out some crucial ingredients! It’s a bit heavy to stir it properly and I’ll admit I handed the mixing bowl to Jaye and told him to do it!
