With a title like that, do I really need to explain? :) I got this recipe from my neighbor back in California, and it is without a doubt the best pumpkin bread I've ever had. Whenever I give it away as a present, I am always asked for the recipe, and believe me it's NOT because I'm just such a great cook. Just ask my family! This is a great seasonal dish, but I love it so much I make it year round.
2 cups pumpkin puree
3.5 cups sugar
4 eggs
1 cup oil
3.5 cups flour (I use whole wheat and it works great)
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. each - cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves
Mix together the first four ingredientsin a bowl. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, soda, salt, powder, and spices. Then mix together the wet and dry mixtures. Grease and sugar two loaf pans and bake at 350 degrees for about an hour.
Enjoy!

What? No Watkins pumpkin bread mix?
Oh well, we're sold out anyway!
Marie, I've never tried the mix, but I loved their pumpkin butter!
I tried this recipe last night but I couldn't fit the pumpkin in my blender to make the puree. Was I suppose to remove the stem? So, I looked around my kitchen to see what else I could use and tried a few pickles. It didn't taste too good.
Yep, this is the best pumpkin bread recipe I've ever made. I really like it with choc. chips and glazed. YUM!
