Ingredients

Pumpkin Bread

  • 3 c Self Rising Flour
  • 2 c Granulated Sugar
  • 1/2 c Light Brown Sugar packed
  • 2 c Pumpkin Puree can use 15 oz. can Pure Pumpkin, not pie filling, if you don't have homemade
  • 3 tsp Pumpkin Spice
  • 1/2 c Molasses
  • 4 Eggs
  • 1/4 Dukes Mayonnaise (can substitute with sour cream)

Pumpkin Spice Glaze

  • 1/4 c Confectioners Sugar
  • 2-3 tsp Milk until all sugar is incorporated well
  • 1/2 tsp Pumpkin Spice

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°
  • In a large mixing bowl add the flour, sugars, pumpkin spice, and pumpkin puree. Combine with a hand mixer.
  • Next, add the molasses, eggs, and mayonnaise to the batter and mix well.
  • Prepare the bread pans with cooking spray. Add the batter to each pan, filling to about 1 inch from the top.
  • Bake 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
  • Remove the bread from oven and allow to cool 30 minutes.
  • If using the optional glaze, combine all ingredients in a small bowl. If your glaze seems a little thick, keep adding very small amounts of milk to reach desired consistency. Drizzle over the bread with a spoon.
