Pumpkin Bread For The Holidays Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9 x 5 inch bread pan. Beat apple butter and sorghum together in a medium bowl; add eggs and mix well.
• 2. Combine dry ingredients in another bowl. Add dry ingredients and buttermilk or water to sorghum mixture. Mix in pumpkin and nuts.
• 3. Spoon batter into prepared pan. Bake for 55-60 minutes. Remove from oven and place pan on cooling rack. Cool loaf 15 minutes before inverting to take it out of the pan.
• 4. If you like, ice with cream cheese thinned with sorghum. This is best if cut lengthwise down the middle first, then sliced into thick slices. Refrigerate any leftovers.
