Yesterday I made my first batch of pumpkin bread for the fall season. Wow! I wish I didn't!
It is sooooo good that I end up eating waaaaaaay too much of it. I made some to take to the teacher's lounge at Campbell for treats for them during conferences. ( Mindee, I know you said cookies, but I couldn't resist.)
Anyhow, the bummer thing about it is, I took some to my bible study class last night and we ate some at dinner too, so.............................now I have to make another batch. More extra pounds. :)
Here's the recipe:
Pumpkin Bread
5 eggs
1 1/4 cups vegetable oil
1 can (15 oz.) solid pack pumpkin
2 cups all- purpose flour
2 cups sugar ( Note: I cut back on the sugar amount and it turns out fine.)
2 pkgs. (3 oz.) cook-and -serve vanilla pudding mix
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. salt
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs. Add oil and pumpkin; beat until smooth. Combine remaining ingredients; gradually beat into pumpkin mixture. Pour batter into greased mini loaf pan. This recipe will make 5 miniature loaves. Bake at 325* for 50-55 minutes.
I like to make this into mini loaves to give away with a pretty ribbon tied around it.
But, I have also made this into muffins which works great too. You just have to cut down on the baking time.

Well I'm sorry we had to miss your pumpkin bread at school, but let me tell you that the shortbread you brought instead was a big hit. Mrs. M asked if I made it and I wanted to lie, but was a good girl and told them it was you.
