Author: Ladies Philoptochos Society of Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church, Grand Rapids MI
Recipe type: Bread
Cuisine: Greek
Serves: 1 loaf
Ingredients
2 cups flour
½ cup nonfat dry milk
1 tsp. cinnamon (I used pumpkin pie spice)
1 tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. nutmeg (I used pumpkin pie spice)
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup canned pumpkin
1 cup packed light brown sugar
¼ cup vegetable oil
1 cup raisins ( I used dried cherries)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°
In a mixing bowl, whisk flour, dry milk, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nutmeg
Fold in raisins (dried cherries)
[My little change in the instructions from the original: I fold the dried cherries into the dry ingredients, before combining with wet. It's a tip I learned watching Ina Garten.]
In a small bowl, whisk eggs, pumpkin,, brown sugar and oil
Add wet ingredients into dry, mixing just until combined
Pour batter into a greased 9x5 inch load pan
Bake at 350° for 60 minutes or until skewer comes out clean.
