Pumpkin Banana Bread

This is a very moist and tasty bread. I found this recipe last year in a "Taste of Home" magazine and I really liked the recipe but forgot all about it until this month. It is a nice change from regular banana bread.








Pumpkin Banana Bread



INGREDIENTS

3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour

2 tsp baking soda

1 1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1 tsp ground ginger

1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

1/4 tsp ground cloves

2 cups granulated sugar

2/3 cup vegetable oil

4 eggs

2/3 cup water

1 15 ounce can pumpkin

1/2 cup mashed ripe bananas 1-2 bananas

½ Cup walnuts or pecans, chopped




INSTRUCTIONS


Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease bottoms and sides of two 9x5" loaf pans and set aside.


To a medium mixing bowl, add flour, baking soda, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves. Whisk to combine.


In the bowl of a stand mixer (or large mixing bowl), add sugar and vegetable oil and beat until combined. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition.


Add half the flour mixture, beating on LOW speed. As it's mixing, pour in 1/3 cup of the water.


Add the remaining flour mixture, beating on LOW, and beat in remaining 1/3 cup of water. Beat until JUST combined and no large flour streaks remain.


Add pumpkin and mashed bananas and stir together with a wooden spoon.


Add nuts. Stir.


Divide batter evenly between the two loaf pans, spreading into even layers.


Bake at 350 for 50-55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.


Place pans on wire cooling racks for 10 minutes. Remove bread from pans, and let cool completely on cooling racks.
