Pumpkin Bread - Foster's Market (Or Muffins or Bundt Cake) image

From Foster's Market (North Carolina). This pumpkin bread has a wonderful flavor. You can use two loaf pans, a 12-cup bundt pan, or make 2 dozen muffins (if making muffins, bake for only 15-20 minutes). Feel free to add chopped pecans to the batter. You can also add a streusel topping or once the bread has cooled you can sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Yield 2 loaves, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon ground nutmeg
2 1/2 cups sugar
4 large eggs
1 cup canola oil or 1 cup safflower oil
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease and lightly flour two 9 by 5 by 3-inch loaf pans or one 12 cup bundt pan. (Or line 24 muffin cups with paper muffin cup liners).
  • Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg in a large bowl and set aside.
  • Whisk together the sugar, eggs, and oil in a separate bowl until well blended. Stir in the pumpkin, water and vanilla and mix well.
  • Add the flour mixture to the pumpkin mixture and stir just until all the ingredients are moist. Do not over mix.
  • Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pans and bake about 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the center of each loaf comes out clean (start checking at about the 45 minute mark). If making muffins, bake for about 15 minutes.
  • Let rest for 10 to 15 minutes before removing from the pans.
