Surfside Pumpkin Bread


pre-heated 360 deg. F.

Blend well, in a med. large bowl:

– 1 1/3 cup WHOLE WHEAT PASTRY FLOUR
– 1/3 cup UNBLEACHED WHITE FLOUR
– 1/2 cup + 2 T. (brown) SUGAR, not packed
– 1/4 cup OATS (quick-cooking size)
– 1 1/2 tsp. BAKING POWDER
– 1/4 tsp. BAKING SODA
– 1 rounded tsp. each: GROUND CLOVES, CINNAMON, NUTMEG

In a large bowl, blend, and slightly beat:

– 2 EGGS (or 1 egg and 1 "flax" egg)
– 1/3 cup coarsely grated APPLE
– 1/4 cup CANOLA OIL
– 1/4 cup unsweetened, plain SOY MILK
– 1 cup (canned, unsweetened) PUMPKIN


Pour dry ingredients into bowl with the wet ingredients, and gently blend in just until even mixed and moistened. Don't overmix.

Spoon batter into a greased baking dish: 8 x 8 inches, or 8 x 10 inches.
Or, makes about 12 muffins.
Spread evenly with a knife.

Bake in a pre-heated 360 deg. F. oven for 50-60 min., until slightly brown on top, and a knife inserted into the middle comes out clean. Baking time for muffins takes only about 30 minutes.

Let cool partly, then remove from pan and let cool completely.
Wrapped airtight, this bread freezes well.

Enjoy!
