How to Make Gluten Free Pumpkin Bread

• Step 1 – Preheat the oven to 350 Fahrenheit and spray a 9X5 loaf pan with a nonstick cooking spray.  

Step 2 – In a medium size mixing bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice.  Set aside.  

Step 3 – In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the oil, sugar, eggs, canned pumpkin and vanilla extract until combined and creamy.  

Step 4 – Slowly stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.

Step 5 – Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.

• Step 6 – Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.  Check the bread after 20 minutes and if the top of the bread is getting too brown, cover the bread loosely with foil to prevent it from getting too brown. 
• Step 7 – Remove the bread from the oven. Let it set for 5-10 minutes. Then carefully remove the bread from the pan and place it on a cooling rack or wire rack to cool completely. 
• Step 8 – Then the bread is ready to slice, serve and enjoy!
