Instructions
For Pumpkin Bread
- Combine all the ingredients and stir until well blended.
- Lightly grease .
- Pour batter into baking pan.
- Heat oven at 350 degrees F and bake mixture between 57 – 62 minutes. (Mine was done in 60 minutes.)
- Do the toothpick test to check if bread is done. Insert toothpick in the center if it comes out clean then it is done. Remove from oven.
- Cool for 10 minutes. Use a spatula to gently loosen and remove bread from pan.
- Transfer to a wire rack to completely cool before adding frosting.
- Add frosting if desired. Cut bread and serve. Enjoy!
For Frosting
- Combine cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar and vanilla in a medium bowl.
- Use an electric mixer and mix on low speed until smooth.
- Add walnuts and sprinkle ground cinnamon.
- Blend well.
- If you want your frosting firmer before spreading on bread place it in the fridge for 10 minutes.
- Spread frosting on top of bread.
- Note: I made the cream cheese frosting but only used ½ cup for frosting. Freeze the rest of frosting for later use. If you will cover the whole top with frosting use 1 cup chopped walnuts and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon for topping.
