A friend of mine graciously shared her secret recipe for this bread with me. It's become such a family favorite that I'm not allowed to enter my family's get-togethers without this bread in hand! Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
3 cups sugar |
3 eggs |
3 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
3 teaspoons baking powder |
1-1/2 teaspoons baking soda |
1-1/2 teaspoons each ground cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg |
1 can (15 ounces) solid-pack pumpkin |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs. Combine dry ingredients; gradually stir into creamed mixture just until moistened. Beat in pumpkin.
2. Transfer to two greased 9-in. x 5-in. loaf pans. Bake at 350° for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool in pans for 10 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool. Yield: 2 loaves.
