Pumpkin Bread - with Spice Cake Sugar

Pumpkin! Yum. It seems like we look for every opportunity to eat pumpkiny things this time of year, and here's another one!  My kids absolutely love this delicious, spiced pumpkin bread. It is sweet and delicious and full of great fiber and vitamins.  If you are Supergirl, you can cook down a fresh pumpkin and scoop out the flesh and smash it up....or you can get a can! I have done both, but this time I got a can. I suppose it would also work with butternut squash or sweet potatoes, but check to see if your dough is the right consistency and add flour or water to adjust.

What you will need per loaf:

1 1/2 C Spice Cake Sugar

1/2 C vegetable oil, coconut oil, or melted butter

2 eggs

8 oz canned pumpkin

1 3/4 C flour

1 tsp salt

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp baking powder

1/3 C water

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 350 F.  Grease and flour a 9X5" loaf pan. Stir the sugar, oil, pumpkin, water, and eggs together until combined. Sift the dry ingredients together and gradually add and stir into the wet mixture. fill the loaf pan and bake for an hour. Check for doneness and bake a little longer if needed.  Let it stand for 10 minutes before removing from the pan to cool.

You could also use Signature Spiced Sugar in this if that's what you have or prefer. I bet you could use Gingerbread too! My favorite is Spice Cake because the bold Autumn spices stand up to the pumpkin without taking over.
