THE INGREDIENTS LIST:
Dry Ingredients:
3 1/2 Cups.Of all-purpose flour.
2 Tsp.Of baking soda.
1 1/2 Tsp.Of salt.
2 Tsp.Of ground cinnamon.
1/2 Tsp.Of ground nutmeg.
1/2 Tsp.Of ground cloves.
Wet Ingredients:
4 large beaten eggs.
2 Cups.Of granulated sugar.
1 Cup.Of brown sugar, packed.
1 Cup.Of vegetable oil.
2/3 Cup.Of water.
1 (15 oz) can.Of pure pumpkin puree.
Optional Add-ins:
1 Cup.Of chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans).
1 Cup.Of raisins or chocolate chips.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1 - Prepare your oven by preheating it to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Prepare two 9-by-5-inch loaf pans with butter and flour.
2 - In a large basin, combine the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves by whisking them together. This guarantees that the seasonings will be distributed uniformly throughout the bread.
3 - In a separate dish, using a mixer on medium speed, thoroughly incorporate the eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, and water, followed by the pumpkin puree.
4 - Stir constantly while adding the liquid components one at a time to the dry ones. Continue until everything is just blended. Take care not to overmix the ingredients, since doing so might change the consistency of the bread.
5 - If you want to add an additional layer of texture and taste, you may mix in some chopped nuts, raisins, or chocolate chips if you want to.
6 - Scoop the batter into the ready loaf pans and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
7 - Bake for 60–70 minutes in an oven that has been preheated, or until a toothpick that has been put into the middle comes out clean. Both the crust and the crumb of the bread should be moist, and the crust should have a golden brown color.
8 - After allowing the Pumpkin Bread to cool for ten minutes in the pans, move it to a wire rack to finish cooling for the remaining five minutes. After it has cooled, slice it into chunky chunks that are hard to refuse.
9 - Pumpkin Bread is wonderful on its own, but it can be elevated to a whole new level by adding a layer of cream cheese or a dollop of whipped cream. Enjoy the laughter that comes from each mouthful you take with your loved ones and close friends at your side.
