PUMPKIN BREAD (2-3 loaves depending on pan size)
Preheat oven to 325 & grease and flour bread pans
Ingredients:
3 1/2 Cups Gluten Free Flour (I use Bob's Red Mill all purpose flour)
3 Tsp Cinnamon
2 Tsp Nutmeg
1 Tsp Baking soda
1 Tsp Salt
xanthum gum (optional- helps keep bread held together, less crumbly. Follow measurements suggestions on pack)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 eggs
1 cup olive oil
3 cups sugar
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 15 oz can of solid pack pumpkin
Instructions:
1. Mix cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, salt into flour (add in xanthum gum if you are using it)
2. In separate bowl- beat eggs, add oil, then sugar, and beat together
3. Gradually add dry mix to egg mixture. This will form a tough dough.
TIP: Use a wooden spoon to stir, it gets really tough! Add in the can of pumpkin
when when it gets hard to stir, then mix in the remainder of the flour mixture
4. After dry mixture, egg mixture, and pumpkin are all combined, mix well
5. Pour batter into pans. Bake for 1 hour at 325 (sometimes more, check with a toothpick)
6. Cool on wire rack, remove from pans, slice, put on your choice of butter spread and eat~
