Pumpkin Bread

 Bex's Pumpkin Bread

Those that know me know I do not bake - mostly because I do not like the fact that you have to be SO very precise in the measurements - but this Pumpkin Bread is so very easy & full proof that I have been making it for 10 plus years!   When it comes time to sift your dry ingredients, do not worry if you don't have a sifter - you can just use a whisk to break up any lumps!   You can also make a really yummy french toast out of any leftovers!!

I hope you enjoy this very moist, deliciously scrumptious Pumpkin Bread!!!

Ingredients:

Mix Together in one bowl:

15 oz pumpkin puree

1&1\2 c  sugar

1/2 c veggie oil

2 eggs

1/3 c water

Sift Together:

1& 3/4 c flour

1 tsp salt

1 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp baking powder

1&1/2tsp Cinnamon

1 tsp allspice

2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

Optional (but I think necessary)

3/4 c raisins

1/2 c chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Mix dry ingredients into wet pumpkin mixture until well blended. 

Fold in raisins & nuts into mixture. Pour mixture into a well greased bundt pan or 2 loaf pans.

Bake for approximately 1 hour - check @ 50 minute mark by inserting toothpick - if comes clean then it's done.

I usually make it the night before I need it and just let it cool completely then cover with foil!

Enjoy!!
