This recipe is absolutely delicious (and i dont even like pumpkin), its kind of like a spiced carrot cake crossed with a banana bread and its so moist.
Ingredients
3.5 cups of plain flour
3 cups sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
1tsp ground ginger
1tsp mixed spice
1.5 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
2 cups of pumpkin guts
1/2 cup of water
1 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
1 cup chopped walnuts
large mixing bowl, measuring jug, wooden spoon, measuring cups and spoons, 2 loaf tins
- measure out flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and spices and mix together in the large mixing bowl
- measure out water, oil and eggs and mix together in the measuring jug
- mix the wet and the dry ingredients together
- using a pair of scissors chop up your pumpkin guts (just snip through the pump in a bowl)
- mix the chopped up pumpkin guts into the mixture
- add the chopped nuts and mix well
- line and flour your loaf tins
- divide mixture between the 2 tins
- place on he middle shelf of a pre heated oven at 200 degrees
- bake for 1 hour then check (put a skewer into the middle of the loaf if it comes out clean they are done)
- if not quite done return to over and check every 10 mins (mine took 1hr 20 mins)
- turn out of tins and allow to cool.
From 1 large pumpkin i had enough guts to make 4 loafs so will be sharing them with my mum, gran and mother in law.
Hope you enjoy this easy recipe and it stops all that pumpkin going to waste xx
