2 large eggs
1/8 c. oil
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. chopped nuts

  • Mix flour, spice, baking poweder, baking soda and salt in a bowl.
  • Mix pumpkin, brown sugar, juice, eggs, oil and extract in large bowl; mix well.
  • Stir in flour mixture and nuts until moistened.
  • Spoon in greased pans (one 9x5 pan)
  • Sprinkle additional nuts on top if you like.
  • Bake in preheated oven 350F for 60 to 70 minutes (less if using small pans)  until wooden pick comes out clean.
  • Cool in pans on wire rack for 10 minutes; remove and cool completely.

Enjoying a chilly fall evening.

    This looks really yummy. I never thought of using apple cider/juice for liquid in my pumpkin bread. I will have to try that.

    Have a wonderful day.
