Pumpkin Bread!


This pumpkin bread is Divine! I can't say it is low in calories, but it is well worth the extra lbs for the taste. It is absolutely melt in your mouth good!

3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (they make one that is specifically for bread)
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
2 cups solid pack pumpkin puree
1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 cups white sugar

1/4 cup brown sugar
2/3 cup water

4 eggs



Grease and flour three 7 x 3 in pans and preheat oven to 350 degrees.




Add flour, sugar, baking soda, salt and spices into large bowl and stir. Slowly, in a mixer, add pumpkin, water, oil, eggs and nuts. It is best to use a whisk until adding the walnuts, right before, switch to a dough hook. Poor into each baking tin and sprinkle brown sugar on top.


Bake approximately for 1 hour.


*You can also make this low fat, by using applesauce instead of oil (either use half applesauce and oil, or all applesauce), and you can use splenda and egg whites.
