Frequently Asked Questions
Why isn’t the center of my pumpkin bread done?
The Oven’s Temperature Was Set Too High. And your oven may be 75 degrees hotter or colder than it claims to be, even if it says it’s preheated to 350 degrees F. If your oven is too hot, the bread’s crust may brown and bake before the center is done.
How can you tell when pumpkin bread is done baking?
Try poking a toothpick into the center of the loaf to make sure it’s cooked through. One telltale sign of doneness in pumpkin bread is a crack across the top, which is exactly where I look. The bread is ready when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If not, bake for a further 5-10 minutes and check again.

Pumpkin Butterscotch Bread Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1 and 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
- 1 3.4 ounces pkg instant butterscotch pudding (dry powder, unprepared)
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1/2 c. butter melted in skillet until browned and fragrant
- 1 c. brown sugar
- 1/4 tsp ginger
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten
- 1 15 ounces can pure pumpkin puree
Instructions
- Set the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Grease an 84-inch loaf pan. Combine the flour, pudding mix, baking powder, baking soda, and spices in a large mixing bowl. To combine, whisk together everything. Place aside.
- In a separate bowl, add the following ingredients: melted butter in a pan over medium heat, stirring regularly until caramelized and aromatic (careful not to burn), brown sugar, pumpkin puree, and eggs. Stir just until mixed.
- Mix the wet and dry ingredients until just blended. Pour into the prepared baking dish. In a preheated oven, bake for about 60 to 65 minutes. (When the top is set and a toothpick put into the middle comes out with a few wet crumbs on it, it's done.) Cool for 10 minutes in the pan before moving to a rack to cool fully. Cut the mostly cooled pudding into slices and serve. Enjoy!
