Power Pumkin Bread


Pretty soon people are going to think Martha Stewart is running this blog. I got this from USAT and thought everyone would enjoy some good warm carbs in these frigid temps we are getting.

POWER PUMPKIN BREAD

(Will make one bundt size pan or 5 mini loaves)

3 ½ cups Whole Wheat Flour

1 cup Splenda Sugar Substitute

2 teaspoons Baking Soda

½ teaspoon Salt

1 teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice (* or 1 teaspoon cinnamon & 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg)

Egg Substitute or egg whites equal to 4 large eggs

¼ cup Canola Oil

¾ cup Natural Unsweetened applesauce

1 16-can Solid Pack Pumpkin

2/3 cup Water

¼ cup Craisins/Raisins or both

¼ cup Pecans or walnuts

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Spray pan(s) with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.

In a large bowl, mix all dry ingredients together and make well in center

Add egg product, canola oil, applesauce, water & pumpkin. Mix well with a wire whisk. Add craisins/raisins and nuts and mix just enough.

Pour batter into prepared pan(s) and bake for approximately 50-60 minutes, check after 50 minutes. Bread is done when toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
