Pumpkin Bread
Makes 2 standard size bread loaves.
Ingredients:
3 cups sugar
2/3 cups water
1 cup canola oil
1 can (15 oz.) pumpkin puree
4 eggs
3-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2-1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1-1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cloves
1/4 teaspoon ginger
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease baking pans; line with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, mix the sugar, water, oil, pumpkin puree, and eggs together with an electric mixer until all is well combined and the oil emulsified.
3. In a smaller bowl, whisk the dry ingredients until evenly combined; flour, soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger.
4. Add half of the flour mixture to the pumpkin mixture, and mix until just combined. Add the remaining flour and, once again, mix until just combined.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared pans. Fill three-quarters full.
6. Bake until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. If batter shows on the toothpick, bake an additional five-minute increments until done. For a standard loaf pan, bake 70-75 minutes.
