Mama’s Pumpkin Bread

This Pumpkin Bread Recipe is very moist and has awesome pumpkin and spice flavor.

You can add a cup of chocolate chips and/or 1/2 cup of nuts (hickory, pecans, or walnuts) for added interest and flavor, if desired.

I make several of these at a time, wrap them up, and freeze them to enjoy later in the year.   I wrap them in a layer of plastic wrap, then a layer of foil and label with the name and date with a permanent marker.

Topped with the Cream Cheese Spice Spread (below), this was another delicious choice for my family.

Pumpkin Bread
What you will need:

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/8 teaspoon sea salt

1 cup canned pumpkin

1/2 cup pure cane sugar

1/2 cup light brown sugar

2 eggs

1/2 cup canola oil

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

3/4 cup + 1 tablespoon buttermilk

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Mix pumpkin and sugar together until fluffy.  Add eggs one at a time, oil and vanilla and continue to mix.  Combine dry ingredients in a bowl.  Then, alternate adding dry ingredients and buttermilk to pumpkin mix – beginning and ending with dry ingredients.  Pour into greased 5 Inch x 9 Inch loaf pan.  Sprinkle the top of the pumpkin bread with cinnamon and sugar for an extra crispy top, if desired.   Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick stuck into the center of the loaf comes out clean.

Cream Cheese Spice Spread

8 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons pure cane sugar
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Mix ingredients together until well blended (use an electric hand mixer, if desired).

Pumpkin Bread, ready for freezing

    I love the kind of days you can light a fire in the fireplace or have a bonfire and put on a big pot of soup to simmer and enjoy all day long. It brings about memories of gatherings we had when I was a child, when we all gathered together to share a bowl of soup.

    Mango fruit leather has turned out to be one of my kids' favorites. The sugar is totally optional, but it makes it much sweeter and cuts the tartness. The post Mango Fruit Leather appeared first on Mama’s Homestead.

    Cream soda...do you like yours red or amber colored? I chose the amber colored version for my cream soda jelly. I like the flavor better. Plus, I added a teaspoon of vanilla, just for added vanilla goodness. The post Cream Soda Jelly appeared first on Mama’s Homestead.
