Cranberry Pumpkin Spice Bread

Cranberry Pumpkin Spice Bread - Terry Ambrose

Cranberry Pumpkin Spice Bread
This Cranberry Pumpkin Spice Bread became a fast favorite around our house. It's perfect for the holidays, especially if you like to bake for other people. Hint: If you're looking for a unique present for the holidays, these loaves of bread can be a great way to say Happy Holidays without shelling out a bundle of cash. (We use a mini-loaf pan that makes four decorative mini-loaves instead of two full-sized loaves.)

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray two 8x4 inch loaf pans with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. Combine the flour, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, ground cinnamon and ground cloves in a large bowl and mix well. Set aside.
  3. Mix the egg substitute, cranberry sauce, pureed pumpkin, applesauce, and grated orange zest together. Add this mixture to the flour mixture and stir until just moistened.
  4. Pour batter into the prepared pans. Sprinkle the top of each loaf with the chopped nuts.
  5. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 55 to 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let loaves cool for 10 minutes then remove from pans.
Recipe Notes

1 egg equals 1/4 cup egg substitute—4 eggs are required for this recipe which is what I used.

Gluten Free Pumpkin Cheesecake

November 4, 2016 By Terry Leave a Comment

Recipe by: SEAMSTERRIFIC

“When my mother was undergoing chemotherapy for the cancer that eventually took her life, I came up with the basic recipe for the cheesecake. It was one of the few foods that she really enjoyed and would stay down. Now my granddaughter has a gluten allergy, so I’ve adapted the recipe for her by using the gluten-free crust instead of the original graham crumb crust. I think I like this version better!”

Passive Time 2 hours + cooling time

Ingredients
Crust:
  • 1 cup almond meal
  • 1/2 cup crushed slivered almonds
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter
Filling:
  • 2 8 ounce packages cream cheese softened
  • 2 cups sour cream
  • 1 3/4 cups pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Whisk almond meal, slivered almonds, 1/4 cup sugar, baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon together in a bowl; stir in butter until almond mixture is evenly moistened. Pour almond mixture into a 10-inch springform pan and press firmly into the bottom.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until crust is set, about 10 minutes. Remove crust from oven and reduce temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Place a pan of hot water onto the bottom rack of the oven to help reduce cracking in the cheesecake.
  4. Beat cream cheese, sour cream, pumpkin puree, 1 cup sugar, eggs, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ginger, vanilla extract, and salt together in a large bowl using an electric mixer, scraping bottom and sides of bowl frequently, until filling is smooth. Pour filling over hot crust.
  5. Place pan on the center rack in oven and bake until cheesecake peaks in the center, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool to room temperature before removing sides of pan. Transfer cheesecake to a serving plate and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Chill in refrigerator before serving, at least 2 hours.
