I make pumpkin spice bread as soon as the leaves start to change... I love the smell of it-- it also makes an awesome bread pudding....


Ingredients:
Dry Ingredients
2 cups flour
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1 tbs baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda

Wet Ingredients
1 15 oz canned pumpkin
1/2 c skim milk
1 tbs vanilla extract
2 egg whites, whipped
1/3 c fat-free sour cream

Spices
2 -3 tsps cinamin
1 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp cloves

Preheat oven to 350°.
Mix dry ingredients in large bowl, add spices.
Mix wet ingredients in medium bowl
Combine wet and dry ingredients until just moistened
Pour batter into pan sprayed with cooking spray Bake 60 minutes, or until done (Spaghetti strand comes out clean).

(This recipe has been doctored over the years, I like a 3 - 1 ratio of cinamin to nutmeg ratio, if I want a little more kick to it, I will add more ginger -- that seems to really spice it up)

I've also done it with Pumpkin Pie Spice (McCormacks makes it, but I thought it made it taste really bland)
