During the fall, when the urge to bake with a can of pumpkin is strongest, whip up this fall-spiced and subtly sweet pumpkin cornbread recipe. It\u2019s the perfect accompaniment to that first batch of fall chili, the slow-cooker stew<\/a> you’ve spent all day making or the pumpkin butter you just bought at the farmers market. Our pumpkin cornbread has only\u00a0a subtle pumpkin flavor\u2014just enough to swirl the smell of fall into your home and warm your autumnal craving.<\/p>\n Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg and cloves. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, pumpkin, milk and melted butter. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients just until moistened.<\/p>\n Pour the batter into a greased 13×9-inch baking dish. Bake the pumpkin cornbread until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes.<\/p>\n Serve the cornbread while it\u2019s still warm. Spread a generous helping of pumpkin butter on each slice just before serving if desired.<\/p>\n Once the pumpkin cornbread has cooled to room temperature, transfer the slices to an airtight container or simply cover the pan in storage wrap. The cornbread can be kept at room temperature for three days or in the fridge for five days.<\/p>\n Absolutely! After the pumpkin cornbread recipe has been baked and cooled to room temperature, cover the pan with a layer of storage wrap, followed by a layer of aluminum foil. The cornbread can be kept in the freezer for up to one month. Thaw at room temperature, or remove the wrappings and rewarm the cornbread in the oven at 350\u00b0 for about 10 minutes.<\/p>\n Yes, feel free to substitute pumpkin pie spice for the cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Use 2-1\/4 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice to make up for those spices.<\/p>\n Besides pumpkin butter, whipped honey cinnamon butter<\/a> or a good maple syrup<\/a> brand would be incredible on this cornbread with pumpkin.<\/p>\n Serve the recipe for pumpkin cornbread alongside our best fall recipes<\/a> to really solidify the coziness. These apple cider pork chops<\/a> are a must for fall dinners. We also love this sweet-and-savory sausage-stuffed acorn squash recipe<\/a>, and you should always serve cornbread when there\u2019s chili<\/a> around.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Pumpkin cornbread is the perfect side when you make that first batch of chili this fall.
