I had a 10K this morning for which the registration fee was actually a loaf of homemade bread. I whipped this up using ingredients in the kitchen cabinet.
Easy. Makes one loaf. Great to serve with coffee or tea.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 3/4 cup vegetable oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup water
- 15 oz can of pumpkin puree
- 1 cup chopped pecans
Directions
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.Sift the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together.
In a separate bowl, mix the sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla, and water. Add the flour mixture to the liquids in three parts. Fold in the pumpkin puree and pecans. Once the ingredients are all incorporated pour into a greased 9 by 5 by 3-inch loaf pan.
Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. At this point a toothpick inserted into the middle of the loaf should come out clean. Cool for 15 minutes and turn out onto a cooling rack. Cool completely.
