Use a premade cornbread mix and add a few ingredients for a special fall twist that is healthier than traditional pumpkin bread. As written, it is a perfect side for soup or chili.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 10 servings

  • 3 cups cornbread mix

  • 1 cup water

  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree

  • 1 egg

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • 2 tablespoons white sugar

  • 2 tablespoons oat bran (Optional)

  • 1 tablespoon molasses

  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 1 1/2-quart loaf pan.

  2. Stir cornbread mix, water, pumpkin puree, egg, oil, sugar, oat bran, molasses, vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice together until mixed thoroughly. Pour into the loaf pan.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes.

Cook's Notes:

As the recipe is written, it is only slightly sweet (but adequate for my sweet tooth!). If you want a sweeter bread, increase the molasses and sugar.

Different-sized pans or cupcake pans may be used, but cooking time will need to be adjusted.
