Yummy Pumpkin Bread Recipe
pumpkin bread recipe
YOU WILL NEED
  • 2 cups unsifted all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 3/4 cups butter softened
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 can (1lb) pumpkin

Combine the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and spices. Whisk well and set aside.

Combine the butter and sugar in a large bowl or in the bowl of an electric mixer. 

Beat until just combined. It will look a little crumbly.

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Continue beating for a few minutes until light and fluffy.

Add the pumpkin.

Beat until combined. It will look a little grainy — that's okay.

Add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture, beat on low speed until just combined.

Transfer the batter to loaf pans.

Bake for 65-75 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean.

Let the loaves cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then turn out onto a rack to cool completely.
