What can I say? I ran out of chocolate chips, and let’s keep it real: Nutella is way better than chocolate chips.  I was going to make just a regular Pumpkin Bread…but regular is sometimes uninspiring. Pumpkin Bread is my fall baking staple.

In the cooler months,  I make one a week. We love Pumpkin Bread. Now, we really love Pumpkin Butterscotch Bread with Nutella. Yowzers! This bread rocks! I was playing on the idea of my Nutella Cake recipe I made this summer.

Fear not! This is not so sweet that it will take the enamel off your teeth. I cut back the sugar I use for my regular Pumpkin Bread because of the butterscotch chip and Nutella thing going on.

I did happen to have butterscotch chips in my cabinets, and you can’t see them when it is done baking, but you can taste their buttery sweetness. This bread is just divine! Moist and full of fall’s yummy spices. And with the right amount of Nutella. Pumpkin paradise.

Look at that nutella! Doesn’t it make you want to take a bite right now??

Why is my pumpkin bread gummy?

If your pumpkin bread is gummy, it may be due to too much moisture in the batter. Make sure to drain any excess liquid from the canned pumpkin before adding it to the batter. You can also add a bit more flour to thicken up the batter.

Yes, you can freeze pumpkin bread! Wrap the cooled bread tightly in plastic wrap and place it in the freezer. Pumpkin bread will keep for 2-3 months in the freezer.

Why is my pumpkin bread dry?

There are a few reasons why your pumpkin bread may be dry. If you overbake the bread, it will become dry and crumbly. Be sure to check the bread for doneness around the 30-minute mark. Another reason for dry pumpkin bread is using too much flour. When measuring the flour, be sure to use the spoon and level method. Too much flour will result in a dry, dense bread.

Pumpkin bread is best stored in an airtight container at room temperature. If you leave the bread out overnight, it will become dry and stale.

How can I tell if my pumpkin bread is done?

To test if the bread is done, insert a toothpick into the center of the loaf. If the toothpick comes out clean, the bread is done. You can also check for doneness by lightly pressing your finger into the center of the loaf. If the bread springs back, it’s ready to be removed from the oven.
