This is the best Pumpkin Bread! I am so happy that it is Fall and I can start making pumpkin things again! My mom always made this when I was growing up and there is nothing better than the smell of this baking. My family can easily polish off a loaf of this warm bread in one sitting, so it is a good thing it makes two loaves.
Pumpkin Bread
3 cups sugar
1 cup oil
4 eggs
2 cups pumpkin
2/3 cup orange juice
2 t baking soda
2 t salt
1 t baking powder
1 t cinnamon
1 t nutmeg
1/2 t ginger
3 1/2 cups flour
Beat together oil and sugar, add eggs and beat again. Stir in pumpkin and o.j. Add dry ingredients and mix well. Pour into two well greased loaf pans and let sit for 20 minutes before baking. Bake at 350 for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
I made FOUR loaves this week using a recipe VERY similar to this one. Mine used water instead of OJ and I would definitely use OJ next time. I also cut the oil by half and substituted applesauce. Yummmmmmmmm.
