Spicy Pumpkin Bread - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1 1/3 cups packed brown sugar
1 cup low-fat milk
2/3 cup butter, softened
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin
Preparation
-
Preheat oven to 350\u00b0.
Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife.
Combine flour and spices (flour through cloves) in a large bowl.
Add sugar and the next 6 ingredients (sugar through pumpkin) in a different bowl, and stir well with a whisk or mixer until smooth.
Add to flour mixture, stirring just until moist.
Spoon batter into 2 (8 x 4-inch) loaf pans coated with cooking spray.
Bake at 350\u00b0 for 1 hour or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean.
Cool loaves in pans 10 minutes on a wire rack; remove from pans.
Cool loaves completely; cut each loaf into 12 slices.
You may also cook in small loaf pans or muffin tins, reduce cooking time to 30-35 min.
Check for doneness.
NOTES: If you're tempted to fiddle with the spices (maybe substitute pumpkin-pie spice for the allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves), please don't.
I tried it both ways and it wasn't as good.
