Tastes Like Fall

Ok y'all, I feel a bit like a broken record... but this is another post about pumpkin bread. I tried making it one more time... and this time it turned out perfect! Here is the recipe I used. It's a lot like the last recipe, with a few additions, and no cream cheese layer.

Pumpkin Bread
1 1/2 cups of flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon allspice {or pumpkin pie spice}
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 15 ounce can of pumpkin
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup of firmly packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 stick of butter, very soft
1 teaspoon vanilla

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, mix butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs, pumpkin, and vanilla. Once the pumpkin mixture is mixed well, add the dry ingredients slowly. Continue mixing until all ingredients are combined. I decided to make 3 small loaves {since I had a hard time getting the large loaf to cook last week}. Grease your loaf pans. Fill pans evenly. Cook for 50-60 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean and bread is slightly brown on top.

This bread really did turn out so yummy! It is soft, sweet, a little spicy... perfect! Well maybe this will end my obsession with all things pumpkin... And I promise no more pumpkin bread posts {at least for a while ;)}
