Equipment

  • 1 Mixing Bowl
  • 1 Rubber Spatula
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons
  • 1 8 ½ X 4 ½ Loaf Pan
  • Parchment Paper

Ingredients

  • 2 Cups All Purpose Flour
  • 3 ½ teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice See Note!
  • 1 ½ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoon Kosher Salt ¼ teaspoon if using fine grain salt
  • 1 Cup Mashed Overripe Banana About 2 large bananas or 3 small bananas
  • ¾ Cup Canned Pumpkin Puree
  • ¾ Cup Light Brown Sugar, tightly packed
  • ½ Cup Canola Oil
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350* F. Grease an 8 ½ "x4 ½" loaf pan and line it with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, combine flour, pumpkin pie spices, baking powder baking soda and salt. Whisk to combine.
    2 Cups All Purpose Flour, 1 ½ teaspoon Baking Powder, ½ teaspoon Kosher Salt, ½ teaspoon Baking Soda, 3 ½ teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • In a large bowl, combine mashed overripe bananas, pumpkin puree, light brown sugar, canola oil and vanilla. Mix with a rubber spatula until well combined. Add the dry ingredients into the bowl and use a rubber spatula to mix until no dry streaks remain.
    1 Cup Mashed Overripe Banana, ¾ Cup Canned Pumpkin Puree, ¾ Cup Light Brown Sugar, tightly packed, ½ Cup Canola Oil, 2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • Scrape the batter into the prepared 8 ½" by 4 ½" loaf pan, and spread out evenly with a butter knife. Then, drag the knife down the center of the batter so it cracks evenly in the middle.
  • Bake in a 350* F oven for 60-65 minutes. Or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf come out clean. Allow the loaf to cool completely before removing from the pan to slice and serve.

Notes

Wait for the loaf to cool completely before slicing it. The loaf will be very delicate until it is completely cool.
And, when the loaf is ready to slice, use a serrated bread knife. This will make slicing so much easier.
The bananas need to be overripe for this recipe to be sweet enough! They should be mostly brown.
For a homemade pumpkin spice mix use:
  • 2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 ½ teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
  • Pinch Ground Clove
