The BEST BREAD ever!!

I'm quite sure that you and your family will flip for this bread. It's called Pumpkin Apple Spice Bread, and it's delicious! Not only does it tast great, but it's good for you, too.





This recipe makes two 9x5" loaves, 16 slices per loaf

Preheat oven to 350F

Topping:

1 tbsp all-purpose unbleached white flour

5 tbsp brown sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tbsp canola oil

Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.

Dry Ingredients:

In a large bowl, combine ~

3 cups all-purpose unbleached while flour

3/4 tsp salt

2 tsp baking soda

1 1/2 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp nutmeg

1 tsp cloves

1/4 tsp allspice

1/4 tsp ginger

Whisk dry ingredients with a wire whisk or fork until thoroughly blended.

Wet Ingredients:

In a large bowl, beat well with an electric mixer ~

16 oz can pumpkin

3/4 cup canola oil

2 1/4 cup granulated sugar

8 organic egg whites

Lastly, peel, core, and chop 2 large Granny Smith apples (about 2 cups)

With a wooden spoon, add the dry ingredients to the wet, stirring the batter by hand until well blended. Pour batter into two non-stick loaf pans sprayed with cooking oil. Sprinkle on topping. Bake for about 50 minutes or until a toothpick or cake tester inserted into the ceter of the loaf comes out clean. Cool on racks.

WARNING: This recipe is a long one! It's also quite messy, so prepare to be in the kitchen for a little while. Once you take a bite, though, you'll want to make it again!! Enjoy!
