As we head towards the holidays you can be sure that one of the breads I will be filling my freezer with in this delicious pumpkin pecan bread. This recipe was shared by my step sister and it is every bit as delicious as her zucchini carrot bread recipe! I’m going to make a loaf for our thanksgiving table this year and another loaf or two for our freezer. Take advantage of the abundance of pumpkin available this time of year and fill your freezer with this delicious pumpkin pecan bread,
Pumpkin Pecan Bread
Ingredients:
1 Cup Dark Brown Sugar
1-1/2 Cups White Sugar
2/3 Cup Vegetable Oil
4 Eggs (Beaten)
2 Cups Processed Pumpkin
2 Cups Finely Grated Carrots
3-1/3 Cups All Purpose Flour
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
1-1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
1-1/2 teaspoons Salt
1 Tablespoon Ground Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Ground Cloves
1/2 teaspoon Ground Ginger
2 Cups Chopped Pecans or Walnuts
1 Cup Raisins
Directions:
Beat the sugars and oil until fluffy. Add the eggs and mix well. Add pumpkin and carrot mixture. Mix well.
Sift dry ingredients together; Add nuts and raisins to flour mixture. Slowly add dry ingredients to wet mixture. If too thick, add 2 Tablespoons water. Mix well.
Grease and flour two loaf pans. (Whole pecans can be laid on top of mixture for decoration).
Bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees, or until toothpick inserted into middle of loaf comes out clean.
Cool on rack 10 minutes before cutting.
This bread freezes well. If freezing, wrap loaf in plastic wrap, and then in aluminum foil.
I know we will be enjoying this pumpkin pecan bread with our tea this winter. Slightly toasted it will be the perfect afternoon snack.

I love having treats on hand in the freezer, Nancy, and a pumpkin bread that freezes well is always a good thing! Love the addition of the carrots for flavour, nutrition and texture. Sharing on the Hearth and Soul Facebook page later today. Thank you for being a part of the Hearth and Soul Link Party! I hope your week is starting off well.
