Autumn Pumpkin Bread

With the feeling of fall in the air, I just couldn't resist the urge to make pumpkin bread this afternoon. This is a recipe handed down from my grandmother (and slightly altered by me!). This bread is just delicious straight out of the oven!

What You Need:
  • 1 cup whole-grain spelt flour
  • 1/2 cup white flour
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 cup pumpkin (canned or fresh)
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp of cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ginger, 1/4 tsp nutmeg
What You Do:
  • Preheat oven to 350 and grease bread pan
  • Mix wet and dry ingredients separately
  • Mix wet and dry ingredients together
  • Pour into prepared pan and bake for 50-60 minutes. You will know when it is done when a knife stuck into the center comes out clean.
  • Remove from pan and let cool on a cooling rack just until its safe to touch. Then enjoy!
