Pumpkin Bread

It's the most wonderful time of the year... right? O wait, that's Christmas. But, it is the most wonderful baking time of the year with pumpkin breads, pies, cookies... yum!! And then comes Thanksgiving with the casseroles, turkey, and pies. So, to start things off, here is a new recipe for me of pumpkin bread from foodnetwork.com. I hope you enjoy!
  • 3 cups sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 16 oz. canned pumpkin
  • 3 1/2 cups flour
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 tsp allspice
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp cloves
  • 2/3 cup water
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Butter and flour 2 9x5 loaf pans, or line 24 muffin tins with liners.
  3. Stir together sugar and oil.
  4. Stir in eggs and pumpkin.
  5. Combine dry ingredients in separate bowl.
  6. Blend dry ingredients and water into wet mixture, alternating.
  7. Divide batter between two loaf pans.
  8. Bake for 30-40 minutes for loaf pans or 20-25 minutes for muffins, until cake tester comes out clean.
