I've made a version of this bread every fall for like the past 5 years and every year I end up making like 2 more loaves because its just so awesome. So now, I bring the joy to you :)
How Long Is This Gonna Take:Total time: 1 hour (includes baking & cooling time). Actual active time: 10 minutes! That's right...you read correctly- an amazing, tasty bread that will impress all your friends & family made in 10 minutes.
What You'll Need:
3 cups sugar
1 cup veggie oil
4 eggs, lightly beaten
1- 15oz can of pumpkin
3.5 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp ground allspice
1/2 cup water
What To Do:
1. Pre-heat oven to 350F. Combine sugar, oil, and eggs in a large bowl. Add in pumpkin and mix well. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, cloves, and allspice. Add to pumpkin mixture alternately with the water, beating well after each addition. Pour batter into 2 greased 9x5x3 inch loaf pans
**Hint from the Cook Book**
Much of a quick bread's (non-yeast/non-rising bread) success depends on the freshness of the baking powder and baking soda you use. (If you're like me- you can remember when you actually bought these, they've just always been in your cupboard...) To test them for their freshness
- Baking powder: mix 1 tsp powder with 1/3 cup hot water
- Baking soda: mix 1/4 tsp soda with 2 tsp vinegar
