For the upcoming autumn weekend, savor the flavours as well as the aroma of the quintessential fall vegetable, pumpkin, in the shape of bread and also muffins. The great thing with this recipe is it gives you the perfect textured bread batter that could either end up as bread or as muffins.
The addition of chocolate chips or walnuts in the batter perfectly brings crunch to these dessert treats.
You can appreciate pumpkin muffins or mini pumpkin loaves while drinking a mug of hot chocolate or even dark coffee in a frosty autumn afternoon, or perhaps a cold fruit juice for a refreshing feeling. Both ways could make you go crazy over these autumn delights.
This recipe will make about 12 muffins, three little loaves, or 1 huge pumpkin bread.
Ingredients
1 3/4 cup (1 15 oz. can) pureed pumpkin, 1 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened, 3 eggs, 3-4 cups all-purpose unbleached flour, 2 tablespoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 2 cups chopped walnuts or chocolate chips,
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare muffin tins or mini loaf pans by simply evenly greasing them.
On your huge mixing container, stir together pumpkin, brown sugar, butter, and eggs. Stir until eventually foamy. With a different container, blend simultaneously all the dry ingredients except for the nuts and chocolate chips.
Measure 3 cups of your combined dry ingredients and whisk into the wet mixture. Toss another cup or more of the dry mixture as necessary to produce the appropriate consistency. Batter should be drenched, but thick enough to make a spoon withstand it.
Fold in nuts or chocolate chips and stir smoothly.
Put or scoop the batter over the prepared muffin tins or bread pans. Position in the center rack and then bake in pre-heated oven until a stick pierced in the center slides out dry and clean. If you are making muffins, bake them for around 20-25 minutes. For small pumpkin loaves, bake for 25 to 30 minutes, while for big sized bread, bake between 50 minutes and 1 hour.
