I found this recipe in an old Bible school cookbook. I made it and took it to work. It was a hit so will post it so others too can enjoy it. Of course I did not follow the recipe to a T!!! I will put what I used in brackets.
Filling
6 oz cream cheese (8 oz pkg)
1/3 cup sugar
1 tbsp. flour
1 egg
1 tsp. grated orange peel (1 tbsp grated frozen orange/lemon pureed - see "My Bread machine Paska"
recipe)
Beat all of the above and set aside.
Bread
1 cup cooked pumpkin ( 394ml can)
1/2 cup oil (2/3 cup but 1/2 would have been OK))
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 tsp. each salt, cloves & cinnamon ( pinch salt, 1 tsp each cloves and cinnomon)
1 2/3 cup flour ( 2 cups or a little more?)
1 tsp. baking soda (1 1/2 tsp)
1 cup chopped pecans
mix all in order. blend well. Pour 1/4 of batter into 2 greased and floured (I just use waxed paper)
7-1/2x3- 1/2x3inch loaf pan. Carefully spread cream cheese mixture over batter. Add remaining batter, covering the filling.
Bake at 325 F for 1 1/2 hours ( probably closer to 60-70 minutes?) Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans (oops...I did it right away!!!) Store in refrigerator.
Yield: 2 loaves
I have this old, green, duotang scribler full of recipes that I started collecting in my childhood when I first discovered my love of cooking. This book is now tattered with pages falling out and recipes written on scrapes of paper shoved in among the pages. It is time to rewrite the recipes so thought I would share them with you! You probably will not see picture but you can know these are tried and true recipes!!
