By Robin from Washington, IA Feedback: RE: Pumpkin Bread This is the same recipe I use, except I made a few changes. I put one tsp of baking soda and one of baking powder. I leave out the raisins because I am allergic to them, and I use walnuts. King Arthur All-Purpose flour is the best to use with this, along with Libby canned pumpkin. The oil I use is canola, and when I make it, it only makes two loaves not three; you might get three if you use small pans.
