Yummy Pumpkin Bread

I never thought I'd enjoy this as much as I do - what can you do in the fall besides use pumpkin, right?  This recipe has been floating around the kitchen on what is now a pretty ragged piece of livy sized notebook paper.  Since the mood has struck me again to post recipes - here it must land!

The recipe makes 2 big loaves. I have yet to try the small loaves so I don't know what that would translate in number there.

Mix together:

  • 2 Cups sugar
  • 1 Cup Canola oil
  • Add 4 eggs, one at a time mixing well after each

Mix together in separate bowl:
  • 1 - 16 oz. can of pumpkin, I like it best with the organic
  • 3/4 cup water
  • Then add to oil, eggs, and sugar
Dry Ingredients:
  • 3 Cups flour
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 salt
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp cloves
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp allspice

I like to mix the dry together first, then add to pumpkin mix just until incorporated

Pour mix into 2 large loaf pans place into 350* oven for 30 minutes.  At 30 minutes, begin checking 'done-ness' by pressing lightly on top of loaf - if done, it should pop right back up.  (Or, the toothpick method always works too!

Enjoy!  I prefer them frozen myself =)
