Instructions
Mix Dry Ingredients
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, 1 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp cinnamon, and 0.5 tsp nutmeg.
Combine Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, and vegetable oil until smooth and fully combined.
Fold Together and Add Walnuts
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and fold gently until just combined. Fold in the chopped walnuts and do not overmix the batter.
Bake the Loaf
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 60 to 65 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning out.
