Spiced Pumpkin Bread




Ingredients 
1 cup brown sugar 
120g butter, softened 1 cup of pumpkin puree (Jap pumpkin is best – steam then puree) 2 eggs 1½ cups plain flour 1 tsp baking powder 1 tsp baking soda 4 tsp Herbies Fragrant Sweet Spices 

Method 
  • Preheat the oven to 170°C. Grease and line a loaf tin. 
  • In a large bowl combine brown sugar and butter. Cream together using electric beaters. 
  • Add pumpkin puree and the eggs, beat to combine. 
  • Sift in the flour, baking powder, baking soda and spices. Mix gently until just combined. Don’t over mix! 
  • Pour the mixture into the loaf tin and level out the top. Bake for around 45 to 50 minutes, or until an inserted skewer comes out with moist crumb – but not wet. 
  • Let the loaf cool in the tin for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely (if you have the willpower to wait that long). Slice and serve.
