Pumpkin Recipes

I have a great Pumpkin Bread recipe to be used with a bread maker:
Pumpkin Wheat Bread (FBM)
-1 pkg. Yeast
-3 c. Wheat Flour
-1 ts. Salt
-1 Tbs. Sugar
-1 can Pumpkin
-1 Tbs. Pumpkin Pie Spice
-1 c. Canned Evaporated Milk
-1 Egg

Place wet ingrediants first, dry second with yeast on top. Follow Bread Machine instructions. Standard Setting. This bread is really goodwith a pumpkin pie cream cheese spread. Get cream cheese, pumpkin spice and a little powdered sugar and blend till creamy.

Here is another Pumpkin Bread recipe to be made without a bread maker:
PUMPKIN BREAD
Makes 2 loaves.
•3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
•2 tsp. baking soda
•1 1/2 tsp. salt
•2 tsp. cinnamon
•2 tsp. nutmeg
•3 cups sugar
•4 eggs, beaten
•2 cups of fresh pumpkin --> 16 ounces if using canned pumpkin
•2/3 cup water --> if pumpkin is canned
•1/2 cup water --> if pumpkin is fresh or frozen
•1 cup vegetable oil •1 cup chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 350 F. Combine flour, soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and sugar in large mixing bowl. Add eggs, water, oil and pumpkin. Stir until blended. Add nuts. Mix well. Pour into two 9x5" loaf pans. Bake 1 hour. Cool slightly and take out of pans to let cool on a rack. This tastes best if you wrap, refrigerate and wait a day to eat it. It keeps well in the refrigerator and can be frozen.
As with all my post I've added the first one....leave your comments on it as well as any good pumpkin recipes you might have!
