how to make Pumpkin Pie Filling Bread
Follow the steps below in order. Prep pans, mix dry ingredients, mix wet ingredients, combine, then bake.
Ingredients :
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 30 ounces pumpkin pie filling
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- ½ cup non-fat Greek yogurt
- ½ cup whole milk
- 4 large eggs

Directions :
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray two 9” bread pans with nonstick baking spray or line them with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, and pumpkin spice. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, Greek yogurt, milk, vanilla extract, and canned pumpkin pie filling.

FAQs
Q: Can I use homemade pumpkin puree instead of pumpkin pie filling?
A: Pumpkin pie filling has spices and sugar. If you use homemade puree, add 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice and 1/4 to 1/2 cup sugar to match flavor.
Q: Can I bake this in one large pan instead of two loaves?
A: Yes. Use a larger loaf pan or a cake pan. Bake time may change. Check doneness with a tester.
Q: Can I make this gluten-free?
A: Use a cup-for-cup gluten-free flour blend. The texture may change slightly.
Q: How do I keep the bread moist?
A: Do not overbake. Use yogurt and pumpkin filling as in the recipe to keep it moist.
Q: Can I reduce sugar?
A: You can reduce each sugar by 1/4 cup, but the bread will be less sweet and slightly denser.
