This bread is so good- ends up very moist and just the right sweetness. Great fall treat- your whole family will LOVE it!

serves 20, makes 2 loaves

Ingredients:
3 c flour
2 t cinnamon
2 t baking soda
1 1/2 t salt
3 c sugar
1 (15 oz) can pumpkin puree (1 7/8 c)
4 large eggs
1 c veggie oil
1/2 cup apple juice (or water-- I used apple cider and it was good that way too)
1 large baking apple, peeled, cored, and diced

Directions:
1) Preheat oven to 350F.
2) Grease & flour two 9x5 inch loaf pans.
3) Combine flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt in large bowl.
4) Combine sugar, pumpkin, eggs, veggie oil, and apple juice in large mixer bowel. Beat until just blended.
5) Add pumpkin mixture to flour mixture; stir til just moistened.
6) Fold in apples.
7) Spoon batter into prepared loaf pans.
8) Bake for 65-70 mins or until toothpick comes out cleanly.
9) Cool on wire racks for 10 mins, remove to wire racks to cool completely.

You can instead do three 8x4 loaf pans and bake for 60-65 instead or...
You can instead do six 5x3 mini loaf pans and cook for 55-60 mins.
