SOUR CREAM PUMPKIN BREAD
I used to make this for a Bread and Breakfast Inn in Highlands, N.C. This is a variation on my Sour Cream Banana Bread, which turned out to be a duplicate recipe here on Zaar. So, in loving memory of my dear banana bread, here is one of the variations! You will love this! You may use flavored yogurt to kick this up a notch! Try vanilla! This also makes a great gift!

Steps:
- Cream the butter and sugar together. Stir in the eggs and vanilla. Stir flour, baking soda, and salt together and add to the butter and sugar. Add the pumpkin, sour cream, cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir.
- Bake in a greased loaf pan at 350*F. for 1 hour. If using mini loaf pans, bake for about 45 minutes. This makes 3 mini loaves for me.
- Variation:.
- Substitute banana for the pumpkin, add 1/2 cup nuts, if desired, and leave out the cinnamon and nutmeg.
- You may also substitute applesauce for the pumpkin, adding apple pie spice. Have fun!
Tips:
- For the creamiest pumpkin bars, use full-fat sour cream and cream cheese.
- Be sure to use canned pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
- If you don't have a 9x13 inch baking pan, you can use two 8-inch square pans.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can result in tough bars.
- For a gooey center, bake the bars for 30-35 minutes. For a firmer center, bake for 35-40 minutes.
- The bars are best served warm or at room temperature. They can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
- To freeze the bars, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil. Freeze for up to 3 months. To thaw, let the bars sit at room temperature for 1 hour before serving.
Conclusion:
These sour cream pumpkin bars are a delicious and easy-to-make fall treat. With their creamy center and slightly tangy flavor, they're sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a pumpkin dessert, give these bars a try. You won't be disappointed.
