Hooray for fall! We love this pumpkin bread recipe--especially when the slices are slathered with a generous spread of cream cheese. Makes two loaves, so freeze the other one, or heck--eat it. This bread goes fast.

SERVES 24 , 2 loaves (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 cups canned pumpkin
3 cups sugar
1 cup water
1 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
3/4 teaspoon ground cloves

Directions

1
Heat oven to 350.
2
in a large mixing bowl, combine pumpkin, sugar, water, vegetable oil and eggs.
3
Beat until well mixed.
4
Measure the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, nutmeg and cloves into a separate bowl and stir until combined.
5
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture, beating until smooth.
6
Grease two 9 x 5 inch loaf pans and dust with flour.
7
Evenly divide the batter between the two pans.
8
Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
9
Cool for 10-15 minutes, then remove from pans by inverting onto a rack and tapping the bottoms.
10
Slice and serve plain, buttered, or with cream cheese.
11
Note: Cream cheese is the ONLY thing to put on this bread because--it is so so so yummy!

I made a loaf and used the rest of the batter for mini muffins, which cooked up in about 15 minutes. A very delicious recipe! The batter tastes like pumpkin pie!

what an amazing recipe. ALL of my four kids LOVED it.... as did everyone we shared it with! I personally could NOT quit eating it! It was even better bc I used it to teach my daughter how to follow a recipe & bake. We followed the recipe exactly and it was perfect. I think we are going to have to make it again tomorrow so they will QUIT begging me for more! thanks so much!!!

This recipe deserves 10 stars!! I mean it. Absolutely delicious. And so very easy to throw together. I kept one of the loaves for myself and took one in to work to share. Everyone was to bring in goodies today. That Pumpkin loaf was gone in a jiffy, and not a crumb left, while everyone else had leftovers to take back home. Plus I had to give out the recipe! So thanks, jmelyn, for a recipe I will be making again and again.
