When I shared this easy gluten free pumpkin bread with a group of dubious tween-agers, I knew I had nothing to worry about. There is something about this moist, sweet gluten free pumpkin loaf that no one can refuse, no matter how gourd-phobic they are.
Pumpkin bread could actually be served for dessert, but we tend to love it for breakfast, maybe even with a schmear of homemade apple butter on top, or a dusting of confectioner’s sugar.
This gluten free pumpkin bread has got all the fall flavors wrapped up into one!
My easy gluten free pumpkin bread recipe is also simple to double (hint: you’re gonna want more).
Most canned pumpkin purées are, conveniently enough, sold in 15-ounce cans, so it’s easy to use almost the whole can and make two loaves to share, if you’re so inclined.
Doubling this recipe makes about 7 mini loaves. You might as well double it while you’re at it.

You can't get this wrong! Well, if you follow my recipe, you can't get this wrong! Delicious gluten free pumpkin bread is a few short steps and only about an hour of bake time away!
Ingredients
- 7 oz. pumpkin purée (canned or fresh, cooked)
- 2 eggs (or substitute like 6 Tbs aquafaba)
- 1/2 cup vegetable or liquid coconut oil
- 1/3 cup water
- 1 1/4 cups sugar
- 2 cups (270 grams) gfJules™ All Purpose Gluten-Free Flour OR 220 grams gfJules Nada Flour*
- 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. sea salt
- 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350° F (static) or 325° F (convection).
Oil and lightly flour (with gluten-free flour) one 8×4.5 or 9×5 loaf pan, metal or glass.
Stir pumpkin, eggs, oil, water and sugar together in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together gfJules Flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and spices. Slowly add the dry ingredients into the bowl with the pumpkin, mixing until smooth.
Pour into prepared pan(s) and bake for 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Remove to a wire rack to cool for 15-30 minutes, then invert gently to remove the loaf. Return to the wire rack to fully cool before slicing. Seal in a zip-top bag when fully cooled and store on the counter or freezer.
Notes
Note: if baking in small loaf pans, begin testing for doneness at 35 minutes; for muffins, test at 20 minutes. Makes 1 large loaf or 3-4 small loaves or 16 muffins.

Delicious and moist! I couldn’t wait for it to cool completely before tasting a slice (or two!) ;). I baked it in a glass dish and it took about 53 minutes in my oven. Instead of pumpkin pie spice (which I didn’t have) I used an additional 1 tsp cinnamon + 1/2 tsp nutmeg + 1/2 tsp cloves.
It’s beautiful, Bethany! Looks perfectly cooked and has a gorgeous pumpkin color! Thanks so much for sharing your picture!! ENJOY!

I live in France and dont have access to your GF flour. Can you please tell me what to use? Many thanks!
Hi Elle, check out this article on gluten free flours and see the ratio at the end about making your own blend. Also note that we DO ship overseas, if that’s an option for your budget. Hope that helps! Happy baking!
