Delicious Pumpkin Bread

Printable Recipe


This is a little unusual in that it uses pudding mixes. It is very moist. If you want to make smaller loaves to give as gifts, or to make sure you are able to use it all up, use miniature foil pans - the kind you get at the grocery store in the baking aisle. (They come in sets of 2 or 3.) 3 of those miniature pans equal one regular sized bread pan.

5 eggs
1 1/4 cups vegetable oil
1 (15-oz ) can pumpkin
2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
2 ( 3-oz each ) pkgs Cook-and-Serve vanilla pudding mix
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt

In a large bowl, beat the eggs. Add the oil and pumpkin; beat until smooth. Combine the dry ingredients and stir into the pumpkin mixture. Pour into 2 greased loaf pans and bake at 325 degrees for about an hour or so, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If you are using the minature pans, they will not need to bake as long.
