Pumpkin Bread
Bye bye banana bread, we love you, but we’ve found someone new! ? Our Pumpkin Bread recipe is a family favourite, and perfect for a mid-morning snack with a coffee. Using only the best pumpkin from your local fruit and veg shop, we think you’ll love this one!
Ingredients
210g butternut pumpkin, steamed and pureed
1 cup plain flour
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp baking powder
1 cup sugar
1 egg
6 tbsp butter, softened
½ tsp ground cloves
½ tsp cinnamon
½ tsp nutmeg
Method
Preheat oven to 180C. Grease or line a loaf tin with baking paper.
In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients (except for the sugar) and set aside.
Beat the butter and sugar in a separate bowl until light in colour. Once light, beat in the egg until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add in your steamed pumpkin puree and beat once again.
Fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, until the batter is well combined. Pour the mixture into the loaf tin and bake for approx. 60 mins or until a knife comes out clean.
Once cooked, allow the bread to cool in the tin before turning out and slicing.
