Ingredients
1. Dry ingredients
2. Wet ingredients
Step-by-Step Method
Preheat and prep the pan
Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan and, if you like, line the bottom with parchment so it lifts out cleanly.
Mix the dry ingredients
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spices until evenly combined.
Mix the wet ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk the sugar and egg. Stir in the pumpkin purée and water until smooth.
Combine into a batter
Add the dry mixture into the wet mixture. Fold gently just until you don’t see dry flour; overmixing can make the loaf tough.
Bake
Pour the batter into the pan and level the top. Bake for about 60 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. If the top browns too fast, tent loosely with foil near the end.
Cool and slice
Let it sit in the pan for 10 minutes, then move to a rack to cool completely. Slice and serve; the spice flavor settles nicely after it cools.
