Pumpkin Poem by Chris MY OLD PUMPKIN Hey guess what you'll never believe, that yesterday I got a pumpkin Now yesterday is one year ago the pumpkin sits like a bumpkin!
First you need a pie pumpkin.. most stores have them labled.. you cut it in half and scoop out the seeds. then you take off the stem and put it into a microwave bowl, you may need to cut the pumpkin in quarters or smaller to get it to fit in the bowl.. put a couple of inches of water into the bowl.. let steam on high for 15 minuits then for incrimints of 2 min untill soft.. usually takes 20 to 25 min.
usually it will come out to 2 cups then 3 1/2 c of all purpous flour 2tsp baking soda 3 cups sugar or 3 cups of Splenda OR a 50:50 mix of the two. 4 eggs, beaten 1 cup vegetable oil 1 and 1/2 tsp. salt 2 tsp. cinnamon 2 tsp. nutmeg 1/2 teaspoon allspice 1 cup chopped pecans 1/2 cup raisons 1/2 cup water
yes alot of ingredients i know, but its acutally easy and fun Preheat oven to 350 F. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour, soda, salt, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg and sugar Add the eggs, water, oil and pumpkin. Stir until blended. If desired, add the raisons and/or nuts. Mix well, either by hand or with a mixer. personally i think mixer is best Pour into two lightly greased and floured 9x5" loaf pans Bake approximately 1 hour at 350 after that let it cool for a bit then let it cool on a rack out of the pan.. then its ready to serve.....
(Optional) To make it sweeter and to supplement your bread, possibly make some sugar icing to drizzle on the top)
