Hey, kids! Welcome to another edition of Cooking with Dad. Today, I’m going to show you how to make pumpkin bread. It’s fairly similar to banana bread, but it’s different. I’ve made this one my own by adding extra cloves, extra nuts, and extra cinnamon. You can customize it to fit your taste, so don’t be afraid to mess around with the recipe a bit.

Before we get started, here’s a dad joke for you: Did you hear about the guy that moved into a pumpkin? He had to move out because it was just too seed. Anyway, let’s get started.

Here’s what we need:
– 2 cups of flour
– 1 cup packed brown sugar
– 1 tablespoon baking powder
– 2 teaspoons of cinnamon (I like to add a little extra)
– 1/4 teaspoon of salt
– 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
– 1/2 teaspoon cloves (adjust to your liking)
– 1/2 cup of nuts (I use walnuts)
– 1/2 cup of milk
– 2 eggs
– 1/3 cup of shortening, margarine, or butter
– 1 cup of walnuts
– Optional: raisins

Now, let’s prepare the pumpkin. Cut it in half, scoop out the seeds, and place it face down in a pan with water. Bake it in a 350°F oven for about 30 minutes.

After baking, scoop out the pumpkin and let it cool. In the meantime, mix the dry ingredients in a bowl—flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, nutmeg, and cloves. Add the sugar and ensure everything is well mixed.

Once the pumpkin is cooled, add it to the dry ingredients, along with milk, softened margarine, and eggs. Mix until combined, then fold in the chopped nuts. Transfer the batter to a greased pan.

Bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let it cool before slicing.

Enjoy your delicious homemade pumpkin bread! Feel free to experiment and make it your own. Thanks for watching, and God bless you.
