Pumpkin Bread - the Best I've Ever Tasted! image

When my son was in "Delightful Day" pre-school (he's 14 now) they had a Thanksgiving Day Feast. They served this recipe. However, instead of baking it into loaves they made mini muffins.To date, this is by far the best pumpkin bread/muffin I have ever had. Very easy to make and soooo moist! Such a pleasure to pass this along to everyone at this wonderful site! Enjoy! PS - This freezes great! Get a jump on holiday cooking!

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 c canned pumpkin (plain, not the mix)
1 c melted butter or margarine, lightly salted
3/4 c water
4 eggs
3 2/3 c flour
2 1/4 c sugar
1 1/2 tsp nutmeg
2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp baking soda
1 c walnuts

Steps:

  • 1. Blend pumpkin, butter, water, and eggs until mixed.
  • 2. Add flour, sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, and baking soda. Mix well and add walnuts.
  • 3. Pour into 2 greased and floured loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees for one hour or until top is golden brown.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin puree: Fresh pumpkin puree will give your bread a more intense pumpkin flavor. If you don't have fresh pumpkin puree, you can use canned pumpkin puree, but be sure to drain it well before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the bread is cooked through.
  • Let the bread cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the bread to firm up.
  • Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days: You can also freeze the bread for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin bread is a delicious and festive fall treat. It's perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With its moist texture, sweet flavor, and warm spices, pumpkin bread is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make fall treat, give pumpkin bread a try!
