Tasty Pumpkin Bread

As the fall leaves change color,

we realize that the holidays are a great time to bake and include the kids, and

… we begin to feel “hygge”.

Hygge (pronounced hue-guh not hoo-gah) is the Danish word for feeling cozy and content. One thing that helps us feel cozy is sharing (with ourselves… or others – if you’re really generous) some warm pumpkin bread.
So, here’s a recipe that goes right along with all that hygge…

Pumpkin Bread

2 1/2 cups of flour
2 1/4 cups of sugar
3 eggs
1 can pumpkin ( one 15oz can)
3/4 canola oil
1/2 water
1 Tbs ground cinnamon
1 tsp salt
2 tsp baking soda

if desired – 3/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecan
3/4 cup chocolate chips

Directions ~  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Beat eggs, pumpkin, oil and water together.
Sift dry ingredients together.  Fold into pumpkin mixture.   Add nuts or chocolate chips.
Pour into 2 well greased and floured loaf pans. Bake for approximately 50 min…or until
it tests done. Let cool.
