What You Need

1-3/4

cups flour

pkg. (3.4 oz.) JELL-O Vanilla Flavor Instant Pudding

Tbsp. CALUMET Baking Powder

tsp. pumpkin pie spice

tsp. baking soda

1/2

cup butter, melted

cup sugar

can (15 oz.) pumpkin

eggs

1/3

cup chopped PLANTERS Walnuts

Make It

HEAT oven to 350ºF.

MIX flour, dry pudding mix, baking powder, spice and baking soda; set aside.

WHISK butter, sugar and pumpkin in large bowl. Blend in eggs. Add flour mixture; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened. Pour into 8x4-inch loaf pan sprayed with cooking spray; top with nuts.

BAKE 1 hour to 1 hour 5 min. or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, covering loosely with foil for the last 20 min. Cool bread in pan 10 min. Remove from pan to wire rack; cool completely.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Special Extra

Slice the bread loaf, then spread with softened PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese. If desired, you can heat the bread slices in the microwave before spreading with the cream cheese.

Variation

Instead of sprinkling the nuts on top of the batter in the pan, you can stir them into the batter before pouring the batter into the pan. Or, you can stir half the nuts into the batter and sprinkle the remaining nuts on top.

Pumpkin Pie Spice Substitute

No pumpkin pie spice on hand? No problem! Here's an easy way to make your own. For each 1 tsp. of pumpkin pie spice needed, just combine 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon, 1/4 tsp. ground ginger, 1/8 tsp. ground allspice and 1/8 tsp. ground nutmeg.

I should add to my previous rating that there will be too much batter for the pan. Fill to within a few inches from the top to allow for the bread to rise. Put the rest ( approx. 3/4 cup) in a medium round condiment bowl suitable for the oven. Bake along with the loaf for approx. 15 minutes.

This is delicious! I've made it twice, and it was gone very quickly. I made it for a group, and everyone loved it. And it was so easy to make. I will definitely make it again and again!

In the process of making this recipe, and it has also spilled over the side and dripped to the bottom of the oven and burned. I followed the recipe exactly, so I do not understand what happened. After an hour and 5 minutes, it is burned on the edges and gooey in the middle. Hope it tastes better than it looks.

I am in the process of making this recipe and I used the exact size loaf pan. However the batter has spilled over the pan and dripped down on the floor of the oven and is burning. What happened? The recipe does not tell you how full of batter the pan will be. My batter filled pan to the top. Had the recipe stated the batter would fill the pan 2/3 then I would have known the pan isn't big enough even though it is size stated in recipe. Unfortunately I made two batches to bake at the same time since I wanted one for a gift. After an hour, still very uncooked in middle, burnt on the edges, and one loaf has caved in the center. My daughter came over and we tried a slice of the bread and did not like it. Not enough pumpkin taste for us.

I made this over the weekend. I was a bit worried when I mixed the dry with the wet ingrediants because it got super thick and didn't really "pour" into the pan, but rather it gooped in. It ended up baking okay, and tastes yummy! It was the taste I was looking for. I like that this didn't use any oil. I didn't have nuts, so didn't use them, and I used fat sugar free pudding mix to cut back on the carbs. I will bake mine a bit longer next time. I followed directions, but this was maybe too moist almost gooey. Will make again the same, but leave in oven an extra 10-15 minutes or so.
