Pumpkin. Pumpkin. Pumpkin.
Friday was my Birthday! One of the things that I really wanted was a loaf pan! For some reason, I've never owned one. Casey got me two awesome non-stick ones. So, today I decided that I needed to make some kind of bread. Of course, I chose Pumpkin Bread. I've never made it before and I'm pretty sure I've never even had pumpkin bread! But it sounded good so I gave it a shot!
Kristen's Pumpkin Bread Recipe
Ingredients:
1 cup Canola Oil
2 2/3 Cups Granulated Sugar
4 Large Eggs
15 oz can of Pumpkin Puree
2/3 Cup of Water
3 1/3 Cups of All-Purpose Flour
1/2 Teaspoon Baking Powder
2 Teaspoons Baking Soda
1 1/2 Teaspoons of Salt
1 Teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice
1/2 Teaspoon Cinnamon
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large mixing bowl combine oil, sugar, eggs, pumpkin and water. Beat until smooth
- Once mixture is smooth, add everything else and then stir together. Make sure you stir here and not beat.
- I used two 9 x 5 in. loaf pans. I filled the pans about half full of the mixture.
- Place in the oven and bake for 50-70 minutes. Check on it at around 40 minutes will a tooth pick. Just make sure there is no unbaked mixture sitting on top. That might happen.
- Once the bread is fully cooked, let cool for 30 minutes before serving.
