Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 teaspoons cumin seeds
3 tablespoons butter, divided
1/2 cup onion, finely chopped
2 teaspoons curry powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 cup cornmeal
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon sugar
1 cup pumpkin puree
1 1/2 teaspoons finely diced serrano peppers
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2/3 cup buttermilk
3/4 cup shredded colby cheese, divided

Steps:

  • Note: If you want to puree your own pumpkin, here are the instructions.
  • To puree pumpkin, peel the pumpkin and cut into cubes approximately 2-inches in size.
  • Boil the cubes in salted water until tender, 10-12 minutes.
  • Drain the pumpkin and then puree it in a food processor.
  • Allow it to cool completely.
  • For the bread: First, you will want to preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Butter a loaf pan.
  • Heat a small heavy skillet, and add the cumin seeds allowing them to toast just until they are aromatic; do not allow them to brown or burn.
  • Remove seeds from skillet and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, heat 1 Tablespoon of butter and add the onion, curry powder, ground cumin, cayenne, and salt.
  • Cook over medium-low heat stirring frequently until the onion is soft; approximately 5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and let cool; stir in reserved cumin seed.
  • Sift the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda and sugar into a large bowl.
  • Melt the remaining butter and set it aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk your puree of pumpkin, chile, eggs, buttermilk, onion mixture and melted butter; mix just until it is moistened-do not over-mix.
  • Add flour mixture and stir just until mixed; do not over-mix.
  • Fold in 1/2 cup of your Colby cheese, and then spoon the mixture into your loaf pan.
  • Bake in your preheated oven for 35 minutes, then remove it from the oven, sprinkle the rest of your cheese over the top of the bread, and return it to the oven for approximately 5-8 minutes longer, until the cheese has melted, and the bread is baked through.

This is another recipe that I found in a Betty Crocker cookbooklet. The recipe makes a light loaf of bread with a delicious cinnamon glaze. It can be served as a snack or dessert with some fresh fruit, a wedge of cheese and a glass of iced tea (or if you prefer, a cup of hot tea). Note: water can be substituted for the chai tea.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, measure and prepare all of your ingredients. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't miss anything.
  • Use Fresh Spices: Freshly ground spices will give your pumpkin bread the best flavor. If you don't have a spice grinder, you can use pre-ground spices, but be sure to use them within a few months for the best flavor.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter will make the pumpkin bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the Pumpkin Bread Cool Completely: Before you slice and serve the pumpkin bread, let it cool completely. This will help the bread to set and will make it easier to slice.

This flavorful Spiced Pumpkin Bread from AliceRecipes is the perfect fall treat. It's moist, flavorful, and full of warm spices.
