Vegan Starbucks Copycat Pumpkin Bread
Let’s talk pumpkin bread!
I know what you’re thinking, another pumpkin bread recipe? However, as someone who is obsessed with pumpkin long before it exploded, I love a good pumpkin bread and luckily I’ve tried tons!
One of the first companies to carry a good pumpkin bread was actually Starbucks. Yes it’s processed, pre-package, not fresh, packed with the lord knows what, but it was just.. so good! I’ll be honest, although I’ve played around with pumpkin breads, they didn’t quite replicate this staple Starbucks Pumpkin Bread as much as I liked.
That being said, this year I wanted to explore this concept again to acheive a result that truly mirrored that classic bread, and this new vegan Starbucks Copycat Pumpkin Bread was born!
What’s great about this recipe, is everything! It’s quick, easy, affordable, contains no dairy, eggs, or even oil, is buttery soft, packs really pumpkin, tons of flavor, perfect for fall, and is hands down my favorite pumpkin bread variety!!
