Pumpkin Cranberry Bread
1 jar pumpkin cranberry bread mix
1 cup canned pumpkin puree (reserve remaining pumpkin for another use-it freezes well)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour (or use spray) one 9 x 5-inch loaf pan (or 4 small loaf pans).
In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin, oil and eggs, stirring until well blended; set aside.
Place contents of jar into a medium bowl; mix until well blended and brown sugar is no longer clumped. Add flour mixture into the pumpkin mixture, stirring until well blended. Pour batter into the prepared pan(s). Bake for 40-50 minutes (30 to 35 minutes for the small pans), or until inserted wooden pick comes out clean and tops of loaves spring back when pressed.
