A moist, flavorful pumpkin cornbread that combines seasonal favorites and fills your kitchen with irresistible autumn aromas. Perfect for pairing with soups, stews, or enjoying on its own.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree (canned or homemade)
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • Optional toppings: honey or butter for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×9 baking pan with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. In another bowl, beat the eggs, then mix in the milk, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, and melted butter until smooth.
  4. Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients using a spatula. Mix just until combined—don’t overmix.
  5. Transfer the batter to your prepared pan, spreading it evenly.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the cornbread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

[‘Don’t overmix the batter to avoid dense cornbread.’, ‘Use room temperature ingredients for smoother batter and even baking.’, ‘Experiment with add-ins like shredded cheese, chopped jalapeños, or dried cranberries for extra flavor.’, ‘For crispy edges, bake the cornbread in a preheated cast-iron skillet.’]
