PUMPKIN BREAD
Ingredients
½ teaspoon salt ½ teaspoon baking powder 2 teaspoons baking soda ½ teaspoon ground cloves 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 cup milk
1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree (about 2 cups) 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour 3 cups granulated sugar ⅔ cup shortening
⅔ cup water 4 large eggs
Instruction
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9x5-inch loaf pans (or use three smaller pans for a lighter loaf). Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the pumpkin puree, flour, sugar, shortening, water, eggs, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cloves, cinnamon, and milk. If using bay leaves, add them whole to infuse the batter with a subtle flavor. Mix Batter: Use a stand mixer or hand mixer on low speed to blend all ingredients together until smooth and well combined. Remove the bay leaves from the batter before pouring it into the baking pans. Bake: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of each loaf comes out clean. Cool and Serve: Allow the pumpkin bread to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes, then remove and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!
