The winner is... My Pumpkin recipe!!

Pumpkin Bread Recipe

1 1/2 cups (210g) flour

1/2 teaspoon of salt

1 cup (200 g) sugar

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 cup (1/4 L) pumpkin purée

1/2 cup (1 dL) olive oil or vegetable oil

2 eggs, beaten

1/4 cup water

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon allspice
** I add a little more to my recipe ¾ tsp

1/2 cup (1 dL) chopped pecans


* To make pumpkin purée, cut a pumpkin in half, scoop out the seeds and stringy stuff, lie face down on a foil or lined baking sheet. Bake at 350°F until soft, about 45 min to an hour. Cool, scoop out the flesh. Freeze whatever you don't use for future use. Or, if you are working with pumpkin pieces, roast or boil them until tender, then remove and discard the skin.(OR you can use can…)
Method


1 Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Sift together the flour, salt, sugar, and baking soda.
2 Makes one loaf. Can easily double the recipe.

Mix the pumpkin, oil, eggs, 1/4 cup of water, and spices together, then combine with the dry ingredients, but do not mix too thoroughly. Stir in the nuts.
3 Pour into a well-buttered 9x5x3 inch loaf pan. Bake 50-60 minutes until a thin skewer poked in the very center of the loaf comes out clean. Turn out of the pan and let cool on a rack.

I love this recipe... I also like more pecans. I use 1 cup in the mix.

Enjoy every one...


Coming soon our weekend at the Seahawk game!! What a great day of seattle fun.
