Sister’s Pumpkin Loaf

By far the best pumpkin bread EVER. We went to visit my family for a week when my grandma passed away and while we were there my sister had a couple loaves of pumpkin bread. Truth be told, I think Cooper and I ate an entire loaf ourselves in the first day. Little did we know a second loaf was hiding out and the following day I literally had to pull the reigns in otherwise we would have devoured the entire thing. I can’t begin to explain to you the massive party in my mouth with this pumpkin bread. I could go off forever about it, but Cooper and I truly did devour these delicious loaves.

When we got home I set out to make this recipe and it was just as good as I had remembered. You really shouldn’t put this on your “list” to make, you should go ahead and make it right now, you wont regret it. :)

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups sugar
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon each, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice
  • 1/2 teas. baking powder
  • 1/2 teas. baking soda
  • 1/2 teas. salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 can (15 oz.) pumpkin
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teas. vanilla

In a bowl, combine the sugar, flour, spices, baking powder, baking soda and salt.  In another bowl, combine the eggs, pumpkin, oil and vanilla; mix well.
