think about pumpkins and all the delicious recipes you can make with this gastronomic delight, but it's always the ideal time to be thinking about yummy food! While pumpkins are usually relegated to the standard pie or requisite Halloween decoration, I like to liven things up and make this Pumpkin Walnut Bread. It's terrific as a dessert and even better as breakfast along with a piping hot cup o' joe. Speaking of joe, while there's nothing to chop for this recipe, check out this cute cutting board from USA Wallpaper. The coffee theme would be a darling addition to any art deco kitchen.
Pumpkin Walnut Bread
3/4 cup flour
3/4 cup whole wheat flour (gotta get your fiber!)
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
1 cup pumpkin
1/2 cup olive oil
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup water
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. allspice
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sift together flours, salt, sugar and baking soda. Mix the pumpkin, oil, eggs, water and spices together. Combine with the dry ingredients but don't mix too thoroughly. Stir in the nuts. Pour into a greased loaf pan. Bake 50-60 minutes or until a knife comes out clean.
