Pumpkin Raisin Pecan Bread
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking soda
  • 1/2 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice, or more to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/3 cup raisins
  • 1/3 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a medium-high temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
2
Next, take some butter and rub it all over two 8-inch loaf pans to prevent sticking.
3
Now, combine the dry ingredients such as flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and baking powder in a large mixing container.
4
In another bowl, mix the raisins and pecans with a small amount of the dry ingredients until they are evenly coated.
5
Using an electric mixer, cream together sugar and butter until it becomes light and fluffy.
6
Then add the pumpkin puree, eggs, orange juice, and vanilla extract to the mixing bowl.
7
Mix everything together until it is well combined.
8
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the mixing bowl and blend until everything comes together smoothly.
9
Fold in the raisins and pecans that you had set aside earlier.
10
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans.
11
Place the pans in the preheated oven and bake until they are firm to the touch and the tops spring back when you press them lightly, taking about 30 to 40 minutes.
12
Finally, let the loaves cool completely on wire racks before serving.
