Pumpkin Spice Bread

By beandip

Ingredients

• 1 3/4 cups flour
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoon cloves
• 1/4 teaspoon ginger
• 1 15 ounce can pumpkin (NOT pumpkin pie filling)
• 2 eggs
• 1/3 cup water (I may omit or reduce the water next time since I think the loaf was a little too moist.)

Preparation

Step 1

1. In a large bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients.

2. In a separate bowl, beat together the eggs, pumpkin, and water. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until just incorporated.

3. Pour into a well greased 9 by 5 inch loaf pan and bake at 325 degrees for 80 to 90 minutes or until it tests done with a toothpick. Remove from the pan and cool on a wire rack. This bread tastes better the day after its baked once the spices have mingled a bit.
