COFFEE CAN PUMPKIN BREAD



Coffee Can Pumpkin Bread image

One of my mom's recipes or actually I thought it was but she told me recently she got it from my grandmother. And she was the one who started making it in coffee cans. I'm a big fan of making bread in coffee cans, so if you still get the metal cans you better start saving them. I've kept the same ones for years. One thing about this bread it seems like it takes every spice in the cabinet, but it is well worth it. Freezes well, too.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 slices, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 lb bread dough
5 tablespoons butter or 5 tablespoons cooking spray

Steps:

  • Also requires 1 small coffee can and 1 large coffee can.
  • Grease and coat the small coffee can liberally with the butter or cooking spray.
  • Place dough in can and cover with foil. Place in warm area, perhaps on the ashes of the outskirts of a campfire until dough rises, until almost doubled in volume.
  • Line the bottom of the large can with about 1 or 2 inchs of pebbles, small rocks or sand to keep the bread from burning on the bottom. Set the small can inside the large one, making sure the sides don't touch, and then insert the large can into the coals, burying about two or three inches of the bottom. Cover the entire top with foil and poke a few holes to allow air. Check by lifting foil in about 40 to 50 minutes. Bread is done when brown on top.
  • Feel free to use different kinds of bread dough. I used a pound of wheat dough mixed in my bread machine.

COFFEE CAN BREAD



COFFEE CAN BREAD image

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 11

First:
1 pkg yeast
1/2 cup warm water
1/8 tsp ginger
1 Tbsp sugar (divided)
Second:
2 Tbsp sugar
1 can (13 oz) evaporated milk
1 tsp salt
2 Tbsp cooking oil
4 to 4 1/2 cups unsifted flour

Steps:

  • Mix first set of ingredients and let stand until bubbley (approx. 15 minutes). Stir in second set of ingredients. Put into greased metal coffee cans. Cover with plastic lids. Let stand in a warm place until plastic lids pop off (approx 45-60 minutes for a 1 lb can, or 1-1 1/2 hour for a 2 lb can) Bake (without lids!) at 350 for 45 minutes (1 lb can) to 60 minutes (2 lb can). The crust will be very brown - brush with melted butter. Cool 5-10 minutes on rack in upright cans.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your coffee can bread the best flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the bread tough.
  • Grease the coffee can thoroughly: This will help prevent the bread from sticking to the can.
  • Bake the bread at the correct temperature: The bread should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 60-75 minutes.
  • Let the bread cool before serving: This will help the bread to set and make it easier to slice.
