This afternoon I was in the mood to bake, so I made some quick Pumpkin Butterscotch Bread. The recipe makes two large loaves. I ended up with a medium loaf and four mini loaves. Two of the mini loaves went into the freezer for a snack later on.
There are quick oats in the bread which technically makes it healthy. :0)
If you have never tried pumpkin and butterscotch together you should give it a try!
Our neighbor had a baby this past Sunday, so I saved the medium loaf for her and her family.
I cut out a square of fabric with pinking shears, placed the loaf (which I wrapped in saran wrap) in the center of the fabric and gathered up the corners and edges.
I secured the bundle with a ribbon bow and I also added a "Congratulations" gift tag.
Here is the recipe if you would like to make some too!
Pumpkin Butterscotch Bread
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup quick oats
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cloves
3 eggs
2 cups pumpkin puree
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup milk
1 1/2 cups butterscotch chips
Preheat oven to 350F. Grease two 9x5 loaf pans. In a large bowl, mix flour, oats, baking soda, baking powder, salt and spices together. In separate mixing bowl, beat together eggs, pumpkin, sugars, oil, and milk. Add dry ingredients to pumpkin mixture and blend well. Stir in butterscotch chips. Fill prepared loaf pans and bake for 45-60 minutes, depending on size of pan. Bread is done when toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pans for 10 minutes before removing to cooling rack.
I hope you all are having a great week!

That sounds really delicious but unfortunately we can't get butterscotch chips here in Japan. We can occasionally get chocolate chips but my eldest is allergic to chocolate and nuts. I am wondering what else might be substituted instead? Hmmmm. Will have to think about that one. Any suggestions?
Wow that sounds very yummy and I am definately going to try this! What a sweet gift :)
MMNN! Now this sounds delicious. We would love this at our home.
I'm going ot copy that recipe for sure.
You are always so creative...love your idea of giving it for a gift and wrapping it up in fabric.

That sounds really good, and so full of autumn.
Lovely presentation for your gift too. I always forget to do things like that when the time comes but it makes such a nice difference.

Kelli, this sounds and looks so very yummy! I will definitely have to try it out. I don't think I've ever used butterscotch chips before.
I've never had the combination of pumpkin and butterscotch together but it sure does sound and look delish!! I have to go to the grocery store today so will buy the ingredients and make some for when the boys are home:-) xox
Delicious! What a fabulous combination! And how thoughtful to send one to a neighbor.
I loved your presentation too-the presentation means SO much to the final product!
OH. MY. GOODNESS. YUM-O!
I'm so making this when I get my fall pumpkins!
yum, this sounds good. i don't think i've ever had pumpkin and butterscotch together. i guess i'll have to try it.
such a thoughtful and yummy gift for your neighbor - fabric and all.
I cannot wait to make this! I'm gonna try it this weekend. Pumpkin and butterscotch are my two favorite flavors so I know it'll be good! Your bundle is so cute! My neighbor had a domestic dispute a few nights ago so I think I'll make some for her and take it over. Hopefully it will bless her in this tough time! Thanks for the idea!
I found butterscotch chips when I reorganized my freezer a couple days ago. This would be a great use for them.
I'm sure your neighbor was delighted with your thoughtful gift Kelli :)

I wish you lived next door to me. :)
How wonderful this looks and I bet is great tasting. Thanks for sharing!

That looks just wonderful--the butterscotch and pumpkin sounds like a really good combination. You did a wonderful job with wrapping it up in fabric and the tag.
Blessings,

Mmmmmm, I just made some pumpkin bread, but I like the looks of this one, so I copied and pasted your recipe to try next time. Thanks for sharing!
That sounds so good! I will have to give it a try. :)
It looks simply scrumptious! Blessings, dear friend.
It looks absolutely delicious!

Oh yummy! Two of my favorite flavors combined into one! Thank you for sharing the recipe! I've certainly been wanting to bake lately too. Autumn does that to me.... :o)
Looks good ! I make my pumpkin bread with chocolate chips in it. Sounds crazy but its wonderful. I will have to give the butterscotch chips. I make a pumpkin fudge each year that has butterscotch chips in it. Sweet but yummy
That sounds delicious! I love the wrapping. That would be perfect for teachers gifts.
That sounds great and you do such neat things. You can mail me a loaf next time you have an extra. hehe .The fabric is so neat.
Butterscotch and pumpkin sound SO good together! And I love the little bundle with the pretty tag :)
This sounds wonderful and I'm not even a big fan of pumpkin! I think it's the butterscotch that got me! Your wrapped it beautifully!
This recipe sounds so good. What a great gift idea and I love how you packaged it so simple yet so pretty!

You have such a wonderful blog here!
Your pumpkin bread sounds delicious, I will try it.
I'll be back for more visits,
Blessings,

Pumpkin Butterscotch... I would have never put the two together. But, I did make Pumpkin Banana the other day and IT WAS A HIT! I am sure this would be, too.
Yummy and beautifully packaged. You are such an inspiration!!
Oh, my gosh. This looks amazing. Thank you for the recipe; we're definitely going to need to try it!:)
This looks amazing! I will have to try it! I'm sure the recipient of the beautiful gift was very happy!
What a lovely presentation for your thoughtful gift, Kelli!
I love pumpkin things to eat. Especially sweet things. This sounds delicious! Thank you for the recipe.
Love the hankies in the post up above too....especially the round one. I've never seen a round one before. It's very pretty with that nice edge.
THis sounds really nice so I must try it. The one you gave as a gift looks so appealing in it's pretty be-ribboned package.
I've made tons of pumpkin bread through the years, but have never heard of adding butterscotch chips before. It sounds delicious.
What a great idea Kelli, to wrap the cake like that! Unfortunatelly we do not have butterscotch chips here either... Will chocolate chips do?
This is exactly what I need to bake for home fellowship this week!! Thanks for sharing~
What a nice and different recipe!
I especially love the fabric idea!!

ATTENTION PORK EATERS: my pop made us breakfast sandwiches the day after Thanksgiving, using this DELICIOUS bread. This breads makes the most amazing sandwich EVER when you use it to bookend slices of honeybaked ham and a little warm brie. The sweetness and the salties is amazings!
