My favorite season would have to be fall. I love the leaves changing colors, taking the kids to pick apples and pumpkins, and making yummy breads, applesauce, and pies. I also love how good my house smells when I am making all of my tasty treats!
Last year I came across a Pumpkin Bread recipe ... (I don't remember where I got it from, so if it's yours, sorry I didn't give you credit for it! LOL)... any whoo... it is the most delicious recipe for pumpkin bread. It almost tastes like a pumpkin pie! It is SO very good and SO very moist!
So go ahead and bake a few loaves... you won't regret it!
Pumpkin Bread
- 2 cups white sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 4 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 (16 ounce) can solid pack pumpkin
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/2 cup water
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9-inch loaf pans.
Mix white sugar, brown sugar, and eggs in a large bowl; stir in pumpkin and mix well.
Combine flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, cloves, and allspice in a bowl; add alternately with water to pumpkin mixture.
Pour into prepared loaf pans.
Bake in preheated oven until golden and a toothpick inserted into the center
comes out clean, 60 to 65 minutes.
Cool in pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
Enjoy!
