pumpkin bread.

I am leaving for China today! Crazy. I bought a ticket a couple of weeks back so that I could visit my brother and sister in law in Beijing.

I am so excited to see them. Our family is a foodie family; we love planning our vacations around what and where we are going to eat. With the coming of fall, I have found myself with a craving for all autumn foods. I made a batch of pumpkin bread. Two loaves we ate at our housewarming party, and the third I hid away so I could bring it with me across the world. Airplane snack :)

pumpkin bread

{very addicting} pumpkin bread.
1 15 oz can pumpkin
1 cup oil
4 eggs
2/3 cup water
3 cups sugar
1 Tablespoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
3 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda

Preheat oven to 350.
Mix the pumpkin, oil, eggs, and water until well combined.
Add sugar and cinnamon and mix thoroughly.
Add remaining ingredients and stir in until batter is mostly free of lumps.
Generously grease 2 large or 3 small loaf pans. Distribute batter evenly among pans.
Bake in 2-3 loaf pans for 50 minutes, or until top middle is set.

Let it cool for at least 10 minutes. You can serve warm, or let it cool. Pumpkin bread is great with honey butter!
