It’s pumpkin season, and it seems like everything from lattes to Oreos wants in on the action. This pumpkin bread recipe is full of “sugar and spice and everything nice,” and is a cinch to make.
Pumpkin Bread
In a large bowl, mix together 2 cups of sugar, 1 cup of brown sugar, and 1 cup of vegetable oil. (used sunflower oil). Stir in 1 16 oz. can of unsweetened pumpkin, and 4 eggs, slightly beaten.
In a separate bowl, combine 3 1/2 cups of flour (the recipe called for white flour but I used whole wheat ) with 2 teaspoons baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon nutmeg, 1 teaspoon allspice, 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon cloves.
Blend dry ingredients with pumpkin mixture, and 2/3 cup water. Mix well and divide between 2 greased loaf pans, or one sheet pan.
Bake for 30-40 minutes at 350 degrees until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before removing. Slice and enjoy!
