Harvest Pumpkin Bread - Great for the cool fall weather!

Pumpkin Bread

This is a very EASY recipe! 

It doubles well! ( I ALWAYS double the batch. If you double it will make 9-10 mini loafs )

1 cup pumpkin (canned or cooked fresh - fresh cooked is ALWAYS better )
4 eggs
2 cups sugar
3/4 cup cooking oil

Mix all this together for about 3 min ( I use my Kitchen Aid for this)

Add the following:

2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp baking powder 
1/2 tbsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg 
1/2 tsp cloves

Mix together about 3 min



You can add in things like nuts, chocolate chips or even some shredded zucchini and its amazing!

Divide into greased baking pans ( I prefer the small loaf pans, I freeze them then pull them out as we eat them ) Bake at 350 until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean about 30 min. 


Remove from oven, remove from pans and let cool on a wire rack. If you are making a double batch re-grease pans and re-refill. Bake as before. 


My house always smells amazing when I bake this! 



This bread tastes amazing with a cream cheese glaze!
