Woodchuck Pumpkin Cider is a highly sought out cider during our foliage months. Infused with notes of crushed pumpkin, this bevy has a smooth taste. What’s ALMOST as good as drinking it? Cooking with it! Without further ado, let us present the Woodchuck Pumpkin Cider Pumpkin Bread.
As we understand it, more pumpkin bread is better than less, this recipe yields 2 loaves. For 1 loaf, cut the ingredients in half!
Ingredients:
- 1 can pumpkin puree
- 1 cup of Woodchuck Private Reserve Pumpkin Cider
- 2/3 cup of vegetable oil
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 3 ½ cups of flour
- 2 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. of salt
- 1 ½ tsp. cinnamon
Recipe:
Preheat the oven to 350°.
In a bowl, combine the 4 eggs, 1 can of pumpkin, 1 cup of Woodchuck Pumpkin Cider, and 2/3 cup of vegetable oil, and blend. Once smooth, add the 1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of light brown sugar, and the 1 tsp. of vanilla extract. Continue to blend until smooth. Use an electric mixer or blender for optimal consistency.
In a separate bowl, combine the 3 ½ cups of flour, 2 tsp. baking soda, 1 tsp. salt, and 1 tsp. cinnamon and sift together.
Take the sifted mixture, and slowly add into the blended puree. Only mix until the batter is even with not clumps.
In 2 well-greased, 8.5”x 4.5”, loaf pans, evenly fill with the pumpkin bread batter. Bake for about 60 minutes, or until batter is completed cooked and the crust is golden-brown.
Take out of the oven and let sit for about 5 minutes, or until you’re excessive drooling won’t let you wait anymore! Lather with a light spread of butter, and enjoy with a crisp Woodchuck 802™ Cider!
