Pumpkin Bread

By Bonnie T

Make the mini loaves and give them as gifts in the Fall and Winter.

Ingredients

• 1 T pumpkin pie spice
• 1 tsp cloves
• 1 tsp nutmeg
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 3 C sugar
• 1 C canola oil
• 4 eggs
• 1 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 C pumpkin pie mix
• 2/3 C water
• 2 tsp baking soda
• 3 C sifted flour
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1 C chopped walnuts

Preparation

Step 1

Beat first 8 ingredients together. Blend in remaining ingredients in order listed. Grease 3 loaf pans. Fill about half full. Bake in pre-heated oven at 375 degrees for about one hour.

Let cool at least ten minutes before removing from pans. Extra loaves can be frozen or will keep in refrigerator several weeks, if well wrapped.

If using regular loaf pans, each pan takes three cups of batter. If using 9 mini loaf pans, each pan takes one cup of batter.
