Pumpkin Bread

TOP TIPS & REVIEWS:

Out of this recipe, I ended up making a dozen Pumpkin muffins and a Pumpkin loaf as well. It is simply scrumptious!! I read all the reviews and took all the suggestions that were offered that were similar. Below is how I ended up re-writing the recipe – it turned out moist, spicy, and DELICIOUS!! My family has already asked me to make this at Christmas!!

15 Oz Can Pumpkin;
4 Eggs;
1/2 Cup Veg. Oil;
1/2 Cup Applesauce (I used sweetened);
2 Cups Sugar;
3 1/2 Cups Flour;
2 Tsp. Baking Soda;
1 1/2 Tsp Salt;
1 Tsp. Cinnamon;
Splash of Vanilla;
1/4 Tsp Pumpkin Spice;
1 Cup Walnuts;
1/2 Cup Raisins;
1 Tsp Nutmeg;
1/2 Tsp Cloves;
1/4 Tsp Ground Ginger;

Blended and cooked as described in original recipe.. Both placed in the oven at the same time, the Muffins were done in 40 minutes and Bread was done in 1 hr 10 minutes.

While on Cooling rack, poked holes in top of muffins and bread, and poured seperate hot Cinnamon Sugar Butter combo over holes, allowing it to seep down inside. Yummmmmmmmy! Will make again and again! Thanks for all the tips everyone!

Best pumpkin bread I ever had! Full of flavor and moist. Freezes well. I did, however
alter it slightly. Reduced oil to 1/2 cup, adding 1/2 cup applesauce; reduced suger to
2 cups, added 1/2 cup raisens; increased ginger to 1/2 ts and added 1 cup chopped nuts.

Excellent. I followed the ingredients and directions almost exactly. The only new things I did were add a teaspoon of vanilla and 1 1/2 teaspoons of pumkin pie spice(I did not have any cloves). I also used one cup of packed light brown sugar and two cups of regular sugar. I baked mine in one pyrex loaf pan(only one I have) and also made 12 muffins. The one cup of oil was not a problem for me at all, nothing came out greasy. I also sift all my dry ingredients together(not sugar). I will be making this again for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Update: 11/3/06- This was so yummy my husband actually asked for more the other day. This also freezes really well. I froze most of the 12 muffins I made and when defrosted, they were still really good. 11/26/08- Yes, I am still making this recipe, today in fact! We now like to add chocolate chips. About 1 cup does the trick, as we don’t like many, just enough to give it a chocolate taste. Tip: Freeze the chocolate chips before hand if you want them to retain some of their shape when done cooking.

Untweaked recipe gets 5 stars, and healthy version gets 5 stars too! Healthy version: (1)100% whole white wheat (it is not as heavy as regular whole wheat), (2)substituted half the oil with applesauce, (3) 1 C brown sugar and 1/2 C white sugar, (4) used apple juice instead of water, (5) doubled the ginger, (6) and added 3 Tbsp flax seed. It was so good, the two of us finished the bread (half recipe) in 24 hours. My husband immediately requested that I make more.

This is a great old Maine recipe, moist and spicy. The bread actually tastes even better the day after it is baked. Great for holiday gift giving!

INGREDIENTS:

2 cups sugar
1 cup canola oil
4 eggs
16 oz. canned pumpkin (not pie filling)
3/4 cup water
3 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1-2 teaspoons cinnamon (I just used 1 teaspoon)
1 teaspoon pumpkin spice (If you don’t have pumpkin spice use 1/4 teaspoon each of cloves, nutmeg, and allspice)

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 2 standard loaf pans with non-stick spray.
In a bowl, mix together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and pumpkin spice. Set aside.
Using a stand or hand mixer, beat sugar and oil together. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing after each addition. Add the pumpkin and the water and mix until well blended. Add the flour mixture and mix until blended. Pour batter into prepared pans.
Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes. Loaves are done when inserted toothpick comes out clean. I used 8 mini pans and it only took 20 minutes to bake. So if you use smaller pans adjust time accordingly.
