From my window, I can look out and see all the gorgeous trees that have changed into their fall colours! The outdoors really has such a fantastic way to decorate for the change of seasons. I love to sit at my dining room table with a delicious tea and treat and just enjoy the view.
For a recent treat, I decided to change up my usual banana bread recipe with pumpkin. Bringing together both into a yummy Pumpkin Banana Bread that is perfect anytime!
Pumpkin Banana Bread
You will need:
- 3 eggs
- 3/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 and 1/2 cups bananas
- 1 teaspoons vanilla
- 3 and 1/2 cups flour
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
Mix together eggs, vegetable oil, brown sugar, sugar, pumpkin, bananas and vanilla. Next, add in the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
Divide batter between two greased 8×4 loaf pans. Cook for 50 minutes.

I’m afraid that I don’t like banana bread nor pumpkin, so I’ll pass this on to my son who loves banana bread and bakes his own. 🙂

I made this recipe yesterday. Tastes great! Will be adjusting for more pumpkin and less banana for next time as I would love to have more pumpkin flavors.
Elizabeth Matthiesen says
Hmm, hope that I haven’t written on this already but I can’t check. This isn’t a recipe for me since I don’t like banana bread and now pumpkin’s been added and I don’t like that either. Fall is not really my time of year, too much pumpkin around. 🙂
Bailey Dexter says
Wow, this looks so moist! Going to try this one but gluten free! Thanks for the recipe.
