PUMPKIN BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Sift the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together.
• In a separate bowl, mix the sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla. Combine both mixtures and fold in the shredded pumpkin and pumpkin seeds. Once the ingredients are all incorporated pour into a non- stick 9 by 5 by 3-inch loaf pan. If your pan is not non- stick coat it with butter and flour.
• Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. At this point a knife inserted into the middle of the loaf should come out clean. Cool for 15 minutes and turn out onto a cooling rack. Cool completely. For muffins temperature should also be 325 degrees F., but bake for 30 minutes.

PUMPKIN BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F. Line two 9 by 5-inch loaf pans with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on the longer sides, then spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Whisk together the flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl until combined. Mash the bananas in a large bowl with a potato masher or fork until smooth, then whisk in the eggs, sugar, pumpkin puree, oil, sour cream and vanilla until smooth and combined. Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture, then stir the batter together with a rubber spatula until just combined (it's ok if there are a couple small lumps).
• Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared loaf pans, smoothing out the top with a spatula. Top each loaf with 3 tablespoons of pepitas. Bake in the center of the oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of each loaf comes out clean and each loaf reaches an internal temperature of 200 to 205 degrees F, 60 to 75 minutes.
• Let cool in the pans for 15 minutes, then use the parchment paper overhang to remove each loaf from the pan. Let cool completely on a wire rack, about 1 1/2 hours.
