RAISIN PUMPKIN BREAD GLUTEN FREE



Raisin Pumpkin Bread Gluten Free image

I have to eat gluten free. My husband doesn't have to but he does. When I make the food homemade it is so much like what we have always known that it isn't a hardship. This is a lovely, moist pumpkin raisin bread. I use Better Batter® Gluten-Free all-purpose flour. I measure by weight and that has made all the difference! I refuse to use bean flour mixes; who wants bean flavor in their sweets? Let it cool completely or it will not hold together. Once it is cooled you can slice and serve. Enjoy!

GOLDEN RAISIN PUMPKIN BREAD



Golden Raisin Pumpkin Bread image

Posted by request. This recipe comes from a cookbook compiled by the Food Editors of the Farm Journal called "Homemade Breads". The recipe says this bread has a "faint pumpkin pie taste". Pre-time includes rising time.

Provided by Kim D.

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 3h35m

Yield 2 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup milk
1 cup canned pumpkin
1/4 cup shortening
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon cardamom
2 packages active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water (110°F - 115°F)
6 1/2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups seedless raisins, optional

Steps:

  • Scald milk; stir in pumpkin, shortening, sugar, salt and spices.
  • Cool to luke warm.
  • Sprinkle yeast on warm water; stir to dissolve.
  • To the yeast, add 3 cups flour, the milk mixture, and eggs.
  • Beat with electric mixer at medium speed for 2 minutes, scraping the bowl occasionally.
  • Stir in raisins (if desired).
  • Mix in enough remaining flour, a little at a time, first with a spoon and then with hands, to make a dough that leaves the sides of bowl.
  • Turn onto lightly floured counter.
  • Knead until smooth and elastic, 8-10 minutes.
  • (This step could probably be done with a KitchenAid Mixer and a bread hook for several minutes).
  • Place dough in a lightly greased bowl and turn over to grease top.
  • Cover and let rise in warm place until doubled in size (about 1- 1 1/2 hours).
  • Punch down.
  • Turn out onto counter and divide dough in half.
  • Shape in loafs and place in 2 greased 9X5X3-inch loaf pans.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin puree for the best flavor. You can make your own puree by roasting a pumpkin and then blending it until smooth, or you can use canned pumpkin puree.
  • Be sure to measure your flour correctly. Too much flour will make the bread dry and dense.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bread tough.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will make the bread dry.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help the bread hold its shape.

Conclusion:

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