The President's Pumpkin Bread image

Mom clipped this one and makes it periodically for Thanksgiving as a cake with cream cheese frosting. I like mine with a gentle dusting of powdered sugar. The clip is so old and yellowed I can't figure out which president was a fan of this bread.

Time 1h25m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs, slightly beaten
2 cups solid pack pumpkin (not pie filling)

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 10 inch tube bundt cake pan or 2 9-inch cake pans.
  • Sift together dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking soda and spices) into a large bowl and form a well in the center. Add eggs and oil. Using a mixer on low blend ingredients. Add pumpkin and continue mixing until the pumpkin is fully incorporated. Fold batter into the cake pan.
  • Bake for one hour or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Baking time is for the bundt cake pan and should be adjusted if you make this as a layer cake.
  • Cool cake in pan for 15 minutes before turning out onto a plate.
