Pumpkin Gingerbread recipe
This delightfully sweet and moist pumpkin bread is the perfect snack, breakfast, or dessert to serve from Halloween through the New Year. For a lighter treat, serve it with honey and butter, and for a more substantial dessert, decorate it with thick white frosting.
Ingredients:
2/3 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 cup canned unsweetened pumpkin
½ cup molasses
½ cup milk
2 ½ cups flour
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon nutmeg
¼ teaspoon cloves
Directions:
1) Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease and flour a 9 x 13-inch baking pan.
2) In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs and pumpkin; beat 2 minutes.
3) In a separate large bowl, sift together remaining ingredients. Add to wet ingredients; mix well.
4) Pour mixture into prepared baking pan; bake 35 to 40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool slightly, remove from pan, and serve.
