May your home be a place where friends meet, family gathers and love grows.
I made these Pumkin Loaves for Knit Night a while back. They were really good and I like that the recipe makes 2 large loaves. I also added 1 cup of white chocolate chips to my batch.
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (I used Whole Wheat Pastry Flour)
3 cups sugar
2 teas. baking soda
1 1/2 teas. salt
1 teas. ground cinnamon
1 teas. ground nutmeg
1 can (15 ounces) solid back pumpkin
1 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs, lightly beaten
2/3 cup water
1/2 cup chopped pecans
CARAMEL GLAZE:
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup whipping cream
2/3 cup confectioners' sugar
1 teas. vanilla extract
I a bowl, combine the first six ingredients. Combine the pumpkin, oil, eggs and water; mix well. Stir in dry ingredients just until combined; fold in the pecans. Spoon into two greased 9 in. x 5 in. x 3 in. loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 60 to 65 min. or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 min. before removing from pans to wire rack. For Glaze, combine butter, sugars and cream in a saucepan. Cook until sugar is dissolved. Cool for 20 minutes. Stir in the confectioners sugar and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle over cooled loaves. Yield: 2 loaves
