Homemade Pumpkin or Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread

Do you love Pumpkin Bread? It’s a favorite in our house – far more than Banana Bread. I had a craving for it yesterday and I found the Kroger Brand Pumpkin (15 oz. Can) for $1.00 per can on sale at Fry’s.

I picked up a few so I could make some bread.  Trouble is.. my router decided to take a day off, so I worked between my in laws & McDonalds & wasn’t able to make the Bread until 1 a.m. when the kids were fast asleep.

Because it was so late & I was a little tired, I accidentally put MORE flour than what was called for — but, it turned out for the better.  This recipe made 2 loaves – I made one last night – and threw the rest in the fridge, and put in to make a second loaf this afternoon – one with chocolate chips and one with just Pumpkin. Yum!

This recipe makes 2 huge loaves - keep one plain, and throw chocolate chips in the second for a nice treat.

Ingredients

1. 3 3/4 C. Flour
2. 1 C. Vegetable Oil
3. 4 Eggs
4. 3 C. Sugar
5. 2 tsp Baking Soda
6. 1 Can Pumpkin - 15 oz. (Not Pumpkin Pie Mix)
7. 2 tsp Cinnamon
8. 1 tsp Ground Nutmeg
9. 2/3 C. Water

Instructions

1. Mix the flour, baking soda, salt & spices and set aside.
2. Mix the Pumpkin, Water, Sugar, Eggs, Oil. Beat well.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry - mix well.
4. Pour the batter into 2 greased and floured loaf pans.
5. Bake at 350 for just over 1 hour - or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Notes

1. This makes 2 rather large loaves -if you have extra batter you could also supplement and make some muffins and bake for 15-20 minutes.
2. Chocolate chips can also be added, fold those in just before you pour the batter into the loaf pans.
