Reviews
Do not waste your ingredients. It is not a good recipe.
I made adjustments based upon the many spot on comments. I reduced the sugar to 1-1/2 cups, added 1-1/2 teaspoons salt and a tablespoon of Pumpkin pie spice. The final product was excellent!
This recipe is a good base, but definitely needs modifications. I added 1 1/2 tsp salt, increased the cinnamon to 2 tablespoons (you may like less), added 1/2 tsp of nutmeg and 1/2 tsp ground cloves. I decreased the sugar to 1 cup but added 1/2 cup real maple syrup. Chocolate chips compliment this nicely – 1/2 to 1 cup. Bake time will be 70-80 min. Also, increase the flower by 1/2 cup if you want it a little less dense.
The most serious basic problem with this recipe is the omission of SALT. Low sodium bakers can use less, but without some salt, it would taste very bland and flat. I added a teaspoon to the wet ingredients just so I could taste it as I added. I also added a couple of teaspoons of fresh grated ginger and a bit of fresh grated nutmeg so it would have a bit more pumpkin pie-like flavor.
This recipe is terrible- do not make it. Honestly, I have no idea how or why this is rated this high. It’s dense with no flavor. This may be the worst recipe I’ve ever found on the Food Network.
Have made this twice in the past three weeks – we love it! My husband takes one loaf to work and we eat the other at home! Yum – a new staple in fall for us!
i also made this one for my moms work and i took out the rasins because of my cuz. but it was still great. yummmmmm
VERY moist and delish !! I also used 2 TBL Apple Pie Spice instead of the “plain” cinnamon…I used the smaller aluminum loaf pans, and made 3 loaves…baked 55 minutes, not QUITE done, left in another 10 minutes…VERY good
This recipe was completely flavorless. I do not reccomend this one
I just finished baking this bread and had a slice it is delicious! I made mini loafs because I am giving them away but it worked just as well, same cooking time a little over 50 min. I also used pumpkin spice instead of cinnamon next time I will use both! And I substituted craisins for raisins because of personal preference. I am at high altitude 🙂 just fyi
