GATHER & MEASURE

Ingredients

Butter and wet ingredients

Dry ingredients and optional mix-ins

Pumpkin purée, two butters, eggs, yogurt, sugar, flour and spices

Brown only the six tablespoons of plain butter. The separate two tablespoons of cannabutter go into the cooled butter mixture.

FROM PREP TO FINISH

Make it, step by step

  1. Brown butter with toasted milk solids in a saucepan

    Prepare the pan and brown the butter

    Heat oven to 350°F. Grease and parchment-line a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan.

    Brown the plain butter in a saucepan until amber and nutty. Transfer to a bowl and cool 15 minutes, then whisk in cannabutter.

  2. Spiced pumpkin loaf batter being folded with a spatula

    Whisk the wet mix and fold the batter

    Whisk pumpkin, brown sugar, eggs, yogurt and vanilla into the butter mixture.

    Whisk flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt separately. Fold into the wet mixture just until combined. Fold in pecans or chocolate if using.

  3. Pumpkin batter in a parchment-lined metal loaf pan

    Bake until the center sets

    Bake 55 to 65 minutes, tenting with foil if the top darkens too quickly. A tester should come out with moist crumbs, not wet batter.

  4. Golden pumpkin bread cooling on a wire rack with two slices

    Cool on a rack and slice

    Cool 15 minutes in the pan, then move to a rack. Cool before slicing into 10 equal portions.
