Four Nights A Week

I’ve been testing out quick breads that will eventually find the way to our Garden Club’s bake sale, a fundraiser we hold around Thanksgiving. So when King Arthur Baking featured this pumpkin recipe, I gave it a try. And as usual, it did not disappoint.

The recipe yields 1 larger loaf (8-1/2 x 4-1/2), but because I wanted to try this out for a possible bake sale item, I used 3 small-sized disposable pans. That worked well, with a small tweak to the baking time. The consistency of the baked loaf holds together really well, so if you are baking for a bake sale, individual slices could also be portioned and wrapped up.

King Arthur Baking has a treasure trove of free recipes and this is one of them. The ingredients to have on hand are below, click on the link here for the instructions.
