Oh friends, I have a delicious recipe for your Tuesday!
It’s my CHEESY PUMPKIN BACON BREAD!
Because pumpkin is good with everything and bacon is good with everything so it only makes sense that we put them together 🙂 .
This quick bread is so simple to whip up and would pair perfectly with your chili at dinner time or with your scrambled eggs in the morning.
This is one of those savory little bites you can enjoy all fall long.
Happy baking! xx

Ingredients
- 1½ cups all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- a big pinch of both salt and pepper
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup milk
- ¼ cup butter, melted
- 1 cup of canned pumpkin (not the entire can, I use Libby’s)
- about 2 cups of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 10 slices of bacon, cooked to crispy and crumbled
- 6 green onions chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Lightly spray one loaf pan with cooking spray and then set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together your flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper. In a second mixing bowl, whisk together your eggs, milk, butter, and pumpkin. Pour this pumpkin mixture into your flour and combine.
- Once combined, stir in your shredded cheddar, crumbly bacon, and green onions.
- Pour this into your prepared loaf pan and pop in the oven to bake about 40 minutes.
- When the edges are lightly browned and the center is set, remove from oven and allow to cool before inverting the bread out on to a serving platter. Slice and enjoy.

Trader Joe’s canned pumpkin is the best. I like it better than Libby’s. 🎃

Such a fun twist on pumpkin bread — I never would have thought to go savory with it, but sharp cheddar and crispy bacon together are a no-brainer. I’m curious how it holds up the next day: does the bacon stay crisp or soften into the loaf? Either way, this looks like the perfect side for a bowl of chili on a cool evening.

YES! I actually had a piece leftover with scrambled eggs and avocado for lunch. The bacon stays crisp.
