Pumpkin Pie Loaf

Ah, the aroma of fall has arrived. This easy pumpkin pie loaf is ready with boxed cake mix and a few extra add-ins. It’s light and dense at the same time, with a hint of whipped cream in each bite!

Just Add Cake Mix

Standard classic cake mix requires egg, milk, and butter or oil. For this pumpkin pie loaf, you’ll just need a few extra ingredients:

  • Sour cream
  • Canned pumpkin
  • Pumpkin pie spice

Half of the butter is substituted with sour cream. This gives it not only added moisture but a bit of creaminess that tastes like whipped cream in each bite. If your cake mix calls for water instead of water, just follow its instructions. However, be sure to omit half of the butter or oil.

 

Tips & Tricks

It’s a classic “combine the wet and dry ingredients” kind of loaf. But with this recipe, your cake mix is the only dry ingredient. Plan ahead to make sure all wet ingredients are combined and smooth.

  • Bring the sour cream to room temperature
  • Melt the butter
  • Stir in the pumpkin spice with the cake mix

Rotating the loaf pan throughout the baking process always helps. I like to rotate it every 15 minutes and use the convection setting.
