Ultimate Pumpkin Walnut Loaf: A Classic Fall Favorite

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Very tasty! I made the whole recipe and got a loaf, 24 regular size muffins, and 24 mini muffins out of one batch. I added dried blueberries to the loaf (1/2 cup) and chopped walnuts and chocolate chips to the muffins (about 1/2 cup of each). I love how moist this bread is--you don't need butter or any other spread. I did make it with butter instead of shortning (I was too lazy to measure!)and used about 3.5 cups pumpkin (couldn't see saving .5 cup pumpkin from the can used) I just used a little less water than called for. I like to send muffins to school with my DS and these are going to work out well. Thanks for sharing your mother's delicious recipe!

    Traditional Pumpkin-Nut Bread, My mother has made this pumpkin bread recipe each year around Thanksgiving since I was a little girl I often make loaves and give as gifts to friends and teachers This bread is very moist and dense with a lovely spiced pumpkin flavor , Very tasty! I made the whole recipe and got a loaf, 24 regular size muffins, and 24 mini muffins out of one batch I added dried blueberries to the loaf (1/2 cup) and chopped walnuts and chocolate chips to the muffins (about 1/2 cup of each) I love how moist this bread is–you don’t need butter or any other spread I did make it with butter instead of shortning (I was too lazy to measure!)and used about 3 5 cups pumpkin (couldn’t see saving 5 cup pumpkin from the can used) I just used a little less water than called for I like to send muffins to school with my DS and these are going to work out well Thanks for sharing your mother’s delicious recipe!, I made this for my son’s Cross Country team yesterday It was loved by parents and athletes alike I did 2 cups brown sugar and 2 cups white I also soaked 1-1/2 cups dried cranberries in hot water and then used the water like another reviewer suggested I substituted butter flavored shortening for the butter taste Next time I will try substituting wheat flour We will definately make this again!
