Spiced Pecan Pumpkin Quick Bread

This easy-to-prepare quick bread celebrates fall with the flavor of pumpkin and pecans . Bake the bread in a standard loaf pan or, for beautiful detailing, use our fall harvest loaf pan.

Ingredients:

  • 1 package spiced pecan pumpkin quick bread mix
  • 8 Tbs. (1 stick) (4 oz./125 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup (8 fl. oz./250 ml) water
  • 2 eggs

Directions:

Preheat an oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 4-by-8-inch (10-by-20-cm) loaf pan.

In a large bowl, combine the quick bread mix, butter, water and eggs, and stir until smooth and blended. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.

Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, 55 to 65 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let cool for 15 minutes, then turn the loaf out onto the rack. Serve slices warm or at room temperature. Serves 10 to 12.
