This morning while the thunder boomed, and the rain fell, and Chris snoozed, I did this.
Right after I made a dash to the grocery store, when despite the fact that I know I have a can of pumpkin somewhere in this house, it was not be found. Anywhere.
There are now an additional 4 cans of pumpkin sitting in plain site in the pantry.
Something about October, rain, and gray skies. They are the perfect match for pumpkin bread.
Also, the Moss clan will be gathering in Arkansas soon for the annual celebration of Ray and Angie's birthdays. They will want to have pumpkin bread to go with coffee in the cabin in the morning.
Maybe we will grab blankets to wrap up in and go sit on the porch while we look at the lake and eat pumpkin bread and drink coffee.
It goes without saying of course, that I could not wait until then to eat some. Not when the house smells so good right now.
Hence the mini bundt pan for now, the big loaf pan for later.
Recipe below if you are so inclined.
I realized this morning that it doesn't tell you how long to bake for. Don't all quick breads just take about an hour? In my oven, the mini bundt pan was done at 45 minutes, the loaf pan took an hour and 10 minutes.
Did I mention it was delicious. Every single thing I thought it would be and more. If only all things in life were so simple and straight forward. And went the way they should.
Looks great! Thanks for putting the whole recipe on one page of your blog entry: made for easy printout!
And if you are wondering what to do with all that pumpkin, just check out the magazine racks at the grocery store or B/N: there is a new all-pumpkin recipe book issued this fall!!!!
