Pumpkin Bread
When I opened my front door earlier this week, I found a surprise package from my friend Shannon (we played soccer together in high school) but now she lives in Maryland.
Look at all the goodies she hooked me up with! Love that girl & miss her! And, she wrote me a handwritten note. So sweet. Thank you Tall Legs!
Kate helped me open the box of goodness & when she saw all the pumpkin goodies she wanted to make pumpkin bread. Since Claire was napping, we got right to baking (of course, Kate had to find her pumpkin hat so she could make pumpkin bread. She cracks me up sometimes)

I know there are hundreds of pumpkin recipes out there.I have tried about 10 different recipes.
I first tried in 2002 and haven't tried any others because I love this one!
It is from our family friend, Beth.
PUMPKIN BREAD
Here is what you need:
1 15 oz can canned pumpkin (I normally use Libby's, it tastes the best)3 c sugar
1 c water
1 c vegetable oil
4 eggs
3 1/3 c flour
1 t baking powder
2 t baking soda
1/2 t nutmeg
2 t cinnamon
3/4 t ground cloves
1 t salt
1 c water
1 c vegetable oil
4 eggs
3 1/3 c flour
1 t baking powder
2 t baking soda
1/2 t nutmeg
2 t cinnamon
3/4 t ground cloves
1 t salt
Step One:In a large bowl, combine pumpkin, sugar, water, oil & eggs.
Step Two:Beat until well mixed(I let Kate mix it for fun, but then I used the hand mixer)
Step Three:In a medium bowl, add flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, nutmeg, cloves.
Step Four:Stir until combined.
Step Five:Slowly add dry ingredients to pumpkin mixture, beating until smooth.
Step Six:Spray 2 9x5 loaf pans with Pam. Evenly divide batter into 2 pans.
Step Seven:Bake for 60-65 minutes at 350
(until toothpick comes out clean)
If you are making muffins, then bake for 25-30 minutes.
Makes 32 muffins (filled 2/3 up)
If you are making mini-loaves it makes 7 mini-loaves (bake for 35-40 minutes)Step Eight:
Let your "helper" play with flour while the bread is baking.
Step Nine:After loaves are done baking, cool for 10-15 minutes.Serve & Enjoy!
While our bread was baking Claire woke up from her nap.
She approves of Pumpkin Bread also! I make this bread every week or every other week. It makes 2 loaves per batch. I made this on Tuesday & both our loaves are already gone. We are carb junkies in this house!
