A deliciously moist, baked pumpkin bread that is made with yogurt and the perfect amount of spice. This pumpkin spice bread is baked in a parchment-lined loaf pan for easy removal and slicing.
Pumpkin Bread made with yogurt is one of my favorite fall dessert or snack recipes. This recipe produces a very moist pumpkin bread thanks to the addition of vanilla yogurt. I used a lower calorie version and it worked perfectly to get a tasty pumpkin bread with a crispy outer, and moist inner.
Now that fall is right around the corner, my oven will be firing up to make some delicious seasonal treats like pumpkin cheesecake, apple pie, pumpkin bombs, and this lovely Pumpkin spice Loaf.
Parchment Lined Bread Loaf Pan
If you are like me, and have trouble getting baked breads out of their loaf pans, then using parchment paper in your loaf pan is a blessing! Here are some of my favorite reasons to line your bread loaf pan with parchment paper:
- Less oil/fat used (nonstick agent)
- Less cleanup
- Easy to take the loaf out (no sticking)
- Easy to slice through the loaf once cooled
Adding Yogurt for a Moist Bread
No one likes a dry dessert bread! Can I get an amen?
By adding yogurt (Greek, lowfat, or nonfat in vanilla) you get the benefits of extra goodness and a moister loaf!
Adding Nuts & Chocolate Chips to Pumpkin Bread
This pumpkin loaf is delicious itself or with add-ins like nuts or chocolate. You can use almost any type of nut, raisins, or chocolate chips to add more fun & flavor.
