This is my first attempt at creating a gluten free pumpkin bread. I used my gluten-free flour blend that I have used successfully on 3 other cakes now, however, the top center never would cook thoroughly, but was just as yummy. I was really afraid the rest would dry out if I cooked it much longer, but you’re welcome to give it a try. I couldn’t wait until it cooled completely before I cut into it, which is no-no, but well worth it. This gluten free pumpkin bread is just as moist as my gluten free banana bread, and the best pumpkin bread recipe I’ve ever had gluten free, or not! Enjoy and let me know how yours turns out. I bet these would make perfect muffins.

UPDATE: It freezes really well, and was perfect after defrosting at room temperature.
A gluten free pumpkin bread which improves with age! Freezes well, too.

Tips
*Some companies add a gluten-containing anti-caking ingredient to their spice blends, not usually to pure spices. To make your own pumpkin pie spice blend, combine 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 ground nutmeg, 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger.

Can you use brown sugar instead of cane sugar?
Mary,
I haven't tried it, but suggest using half brown sugar and half granulated/white. This recipe is already moist. Using all brown sugar will make it way too moist.
Carla
What a fabulous loaf. It turned out so moist. I love anything pumpkin.
The recipe says In bowl add pumpkin or allspice to flour blend and whisk well. The recipe didn't call for allspice. Where did that come from and are you suppose to add allspice to the flour blend?
Joyce,
The recipe is now updated. No allspice needed. Sorry about that!

I made this yesterday & it tastes very good. However, when I took it out of the oven after 60 min. of baking (toothpick tested clean), it looked beautiful & then a little bit later it was sunken. What causes this to happen? When I sliced & ate it, 3/4 of it looks nice, the way bread should look & the bottom 1/4 doesn't look right, like it's not baked or something.
Hi Janelle,
Before I go ahead and give you advice, let me find out what flour you used. When people have problems with my recipes that call for my gluten-free cake flour blend recipe, it is usually because they did not use "superfine" rice flour. So, just let me know if you used the correct flour or not. Then we can go from there.
Thanks,
Carla
This was delicious! Not doughy at all. Added chocolate chips. Pure heaven!
So glad you enjoyed it, Diane! If it weren't for my pumpkin allergies I could eat this 24/7!
Carla
Mmmmm....sounds good. I'm looking forward to trying this. I may make muffins and freeze part. I'm betting they will be really good for a grab and go breakfast.
Wanda, sounds like a great plan. Send me some, will you? LOL!
Enjoy,
Carla
I followed your recipe to the letter and it cameout as flat as a pancake, almost. Not bread-like at all--completely gooey and flat. Why do you not use something to raise the dough? Eggs are not enough to raise this bread.
Bummer!

Hi Chris, if you click on the link to Carla's Gluten Free Cake Flour Blend, you'll see that it contains baking powder and baking soda. Did you substitute Carla's Gluten Free Cake Flour Blend with an all purpose flour?

Thanks for the recipe! I made it this morning and it's a hit! I love pumpkin anything.
I cooked it for 60 min. in my oven and nope, not wet just moist. The top is nice and crusty but not too crusty.
I added a few chocolate chips in hopes that the kids might eat it.
