Give Thanks: Printables and Pumpkin Loaf

Thanksgiving Printables & Pumpkin Loaf

by Jordan Bariesheff from Polkadot Prints - www.polkadotprints.com.au

Since arriving in Canada, I really understand the seasons more and realize that some foods just aren't in season when I'm use to having most produce year round.

A new friend here gave me this pumpkin bread recipe when pumpkins finally came into season. I've made it a number of times already and people are now asking me for the recipe. So now I pass it on to you. It's moist and delicious, and I know you'll like it!

Pumpkin Loaf

3 c. white sugar

1 c. cooking oil

4 eggs

1 can (15 ounce) of pumpkin puree

1 1/2 tsp. salt

2 tsp. cinnamon

1 tsp.nutmeg

2 tsp. baking soda

2/3 c. water

3 1/2 c. flour

Mix in order of ingredients in large bowl. At end, alternate flour and water a bit at a time to get good consistency. Grease 2 loaf pans. Pour batter into pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 53 - 55 minutes (depending on your oven just check it).

Serving this loaf at your Thanksgiving dinner, or packaging it up for your guests to take home, will add some warmth & welcome to your Thanksgiving table.

You'll find a free printable including a belly band as well as a swing tag below, to create a classic black & Kraft tablescape. Or why not mix it with khaki green or a crisp white for a different look!
