Pumpkin Bread with Cream Cheese Frosting

 
Wow! Its been awhile since my last post :( Sorry bout that! Tonight I made pumpkin bread with cream cheese frosting for dessert. I had a couple of pumpkins and made my own puree for some great tasting dishes :)
 
Bread:
1/3 c water
1/3 c vegetable oil
1 c pumpkin puree
2 eggs lightly beaten
1 1/4 c sugar
1 2/3 c flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp ginger
3/4 tsp salt
 
Frosting:
8 oz softened cream cheese
1 stick softened butter or margarine
2 tsp vanilla
4 c powdered sugar
 
Preheat oven to 350F and grease a loaf pan. In a bowl mix together water, oil, pumpkin and eggs. In a seperate bowl mix together sugar, flour, soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and salt. Pour into greased loaf pan and bake for 45-50 min. Blend together crean cheese, butter and vanilla. Gradually add powdered sugar until smooth. Frost baked bread and enjoy! :)
