Pumpkin Bread

Hey hey, merry Christmas. I made some pumpkin bread this morning and it turned out really well. Very tasty and a nice Christmas morning bread! Recipe is below... Also have a picture here of Liam with a Longhorns hat on, that he got from Joyce and Jack (my second cousin?) in Texas.

Pumpkin Bread

1 3/4 cup pumpkin puree (one 15 ox can)
1 1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
3 eggs
3 cups flour
2 Tbsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
2 cups walnuts or chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Combine pumpkin, sugar, eggs, and butter; mix until creamy. Mix dry ingredients and then add to wet ingredients. The batter should hold a spoon up but still be wet. If you need a little more flour that is fine. Add in your nuts or chips at the end and mix.
You can make one large loaf or 2-3 small loafs or muffins out of the batter.
muffins: 20-25 minutes
small loafs: 25-30 minutes
large loaf: 50-60 minutes

Enjoy!!
