Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 9-inch x 5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper. Slightly oil paper with oil. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk pumpkin puree, canned coconut milk, brown sugar, and vanilla extract if used.
Add self-rising flour, pumpkin spices, and salt if used.
Use a rubber spatula to stir the ingredients together, it should be thick and smooth.
Transfer the dough to the prepared pan, and use a knife to draw a line in the center top of the pumpkin bread so it cracks while baking.
Bake the bread on the center rack for 50-55 minutes at 350°F (180°C) until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If not, add 10 minutes and repeat.
Let the bread cool down completely on a cooling rack for 3 hours or overnight before slicing
Flour: You can swap self-rising flour for 2 cups of all-purpose flour which you stir in 1 tablespoon baking powder. The recipe doesn't work with almond flour or oat flour. For a gluten-free option, use my gluten-free converter, but don't forget the baking powder.Storage: You can store the bread in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.Canned Coconut Milk: It can be swapped for canned coconut cream. Dairy-free milk like almond milk, soy, milk, and oat milk work, too, but the bread won't be as moist because these alternatives contain less fat. Another option to use low-fat, dairy-free milk is to swap the 2/3 cup of canned coconut milk for 1/3 cup of canola oil + 1/3 cup of dairy-free milk.
Oven Mode: I use the fan-forced (convection) mode. If you have to use conventional mode, I recommend increasing the temperature by 25°F (15°C). The baking time should be the same, but it might take a few more minutes.
