A Favorite Fall Treat - One Bowl Pumpkin Bread

by Shari Randall
Yes, I need to work on my food styling.

The joys of fall are many - the blaze of crimson and orange leaves and the satisfying crunch of walking through them on a country lane. Apple picking and corn mazes. The cooler weather, making it a perfect time to wear cozy, soft woolen sweaters.
But pumpkin spice everything? Blech.
There's only one pumpkin flavored fall treat I do love: pumpkin bread.
I've seen many recipes but this version is one I've stuck with for years - the holiday spice aroma and one bowl easy clean up make it a winner. Whip up some up and let me know what you think. You can make two loaves from this recipe or a few more than two dozen generously sized muffins. Bon appetit!

2 1/2 c. sugar
4 eggs
3 1/2 c. flour
1 1/2 tsp. salt
3 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. ginger
2 tsp. baking soda
3 tsp. cinnamon
1 c. oil
2/3 c. cold water
1 lb. can pumpkin

Mix all ingredients together with electric mixer.  Grease 2 loaf pans (do not flour). Bake at 350 for one hour.  If you do muffins, they'll take 18-22 minutes. Check doneness with a tester inserted into the middle. Enjoy!
