I made our favorite Pumpkin Spice Bread last night and now it's beginning to smell a lot like fall around here!
Paired with a cup of yummy amaretto coffee and it was the beginning of a wonderful night!
Want the recipe?
Pumpkin Spice Bread
1 3/4 cup flour
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/8 tsp. ground cloves
1/2 cup margarine
1 cup canned pumpkin (8 oz.)
1 egg
1/3 cup water
Mix it all up, pour into a loaf pan, and bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes at 350 degrees. Then enjoy the pumpkin goodness!
Speaking of recipes, I recently reorganized all of my recipes while I was in the hospital. Sooo glad I did, because that's definitely not something I could do now that life is a little more hectic with two babies.
I used plastic sheet protectors so I could pull out the recipe I'm working on and it would be splatter proof. There are 10 dividers:
- Reference
- Breakfast
- Drinks
- Appetizers
- Breads
- Main Dishes
- Side Dishes
- Cakes/Pies
- Sweets
- Gifts
What do you love baking for fall? I'm thinking homemade applesauce next?!
I started organizing my recipes months ago but gave up. I LOVE what you decided to do. I need to get those recipes organized before Christmas.

Your cookbook is lovely, and your pumpkin bread looks delicious! Mmmm...my favorite autumn baked goodies are gingersnaps (undercooked by a couple of minutes so they're more like ginger softs) and apple butter!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I'm totally make the fishing toy for my oder son for Christmas. Thank you for the fabulous idea!
ReplyDeleteyummm. i have a great recipe for pumpkin white chocolate chip muffins that is similar...i need to make them soon!
ReplyDeleteThat pumpkin bread looks amazing! And I love your recipe binder. I totally need to do that- I have little scraps of paper with recipes written down floating around drawers, printouts stuck to the fridge, cooking magazines all over the place and I can never find which particular recipe I'm looking for! I need to do what you did! Thanks for the inspiration :)
ReplyDeleteOoh, I think I have all those ingredients. My thesis work (which will be done in December, so I'll be able to return to craft-land with you then - YAY!) will keep me from making it tonight, but I might be able to use your pictures to convince Lee to bake it tonight. :)
ReplyDeleteyum! we are trying this tonight! i can't believe it's already halloween & i'm just now making pumpkin stuff! ps- i've heard homemade applesauce is super easy, just apples & water cooked until it turns into applesauce :)
