Pro Tips and Timesaver Shortcuts
- To freeze: rather than freeze the entire loaf, I like to slice the bread and store the individual slices in resealable plastic bags or plastic wrap and place in the freezer.
- To reheat: Warm in microwave on high for about 45 seconds and enjoy
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.
While this makes a delicious pumpkin loaf, I like to double the recipe and make use mini loaf pans. This copycat recipe makes a fantastic bread with delicious pumpkin flavor!
Recipe FAQs
Does Starbucks Pumpkin Bread have Nuts?
No, Starbucks pumpkin bread is nut-free, but you can add nuts, chocolate chips or shelled pumpkin seeds if you like. Just add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts or chips before baking.
How do you test the doneness of pumpkin bread?
Insert a wood skewer (soaked in water first) or cake tester to check doneness. The skewer should come out clean when inserted in center of the loaf.
