Method
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour two large (9 by 5-inch) loaf pans.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice.
- In another large bowl, blend together the pumpkin puree, sugar, oil, water, eggs, and vanilla until well incorporated.
- Slowly add in the flour mixture, stirring until just blended.
- In a small bowl, stir together the sugar and cinnamon until well combined.
- Divide three-quarters of the batter between the prepared pans. Sprinkle with about three-quarters of the cinnamon sugar, and use a butter knife to swirl through each loaf.
- Divide the remaining batter between the pans and sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Bake for 60 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool bread in pans for 5 to 10 minutes and then carefully turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
For a richer taste, swap out the vegetable oil for melted butter. Add chocolate chips or nuts for texture, or dried cranberries for a seasonal twist. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or freeze for longer storage.
