Ingredients:
- 3 1/2 cups flour
- 3 cups sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 can (15 ounces) pumpkin puree
- 1 cup water
- 4 eggs
- 2/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions:
-
Preheat the oven: Heat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). This will ensure that it’s perfectly heated when your pumpkin bread is ready to bake.
-
Prepare loaf pans: Grease and flour three loaf pans, ensuring that the pumpkin bread doesn’t stick to the pans once baked.
-
Combine dry ingredients: In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set this mixture aside for later use.
-
Mix wet ingredients: In another large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, water, eggs, and vegetable oil. Stir until the ingredients are well incorporated.
-
Blend dry and wet ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until everything is well combined and there are no lumps.
-
Add nuts: Gently stir in the chopped walnuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
-
Transfer to pans: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans, distributing it evenly to ensure each loaf bakes uniformly.
-
Bake: Place the loaf pans in the preheated oven and bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean. This ensures that the bread is fully baked and ready to enjoy.
-
Cool: Allow the pumpkin bread loaves to cool in the pans for 15 minutes on a wire rack. This helps them set and makes them easier to remove from the pans without breaking.
-
Serve: Once cooled, slice and serve your delicious pumpkin bread. Enjoy it warm or at room temperature, with a cup of coffee or tea for a delightful treat.
Notes:
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
- Variations: Feel free to customize this recipe by adding raisins, chocolate chips, or other nuts for added texture and flavor.
