Amber's Pilgrim Pumpkin Bread

Ingredients:

8.2 dcl mjöl/3.5 cups flour

7 dcl socker/ 3 cups sugar

2 tsk bikarbonat natrium/ 2 tsp baking SODA

3 tsk kanel/3 tsp cinnamon

1 tsk muskotnöt/ 1 tsp nutmeg

1.5 tsk salt/1.5 tsp salt

4 ägg/4 eggs

200g smör/ (7/8ths) of a cup butter

1.5 dcl vatten/  0.66 cup water

4.7 dcl kokta mosade pumpa/ 2 cups cooked mashed pumpkin

3.4 dcl hackade valnötter/ 1.5 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions:

Combine in a large bowl flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.

Preheat the oven to a convection oven at  390 degrees F(200 C, varm luft). Combine in a large bowl eggs, butter, water, and pumpkin. Stir the dry mix into the wet mix. Butter three 8x4 in. loaf pans (Smöra in tre 20x10cm bröd former). You can sprinkle oats into the pan first so that it sticks to the butter, which gives it a nice finished look. Pour the entire mix into the three pans and put in the oven for about 40 minutes (until a toothpick comes out clean from the middle).

Enjoy while warm with butter on top (or toasted with cream cheese)!
