While we arrived home on Tuesday after our time with the extended Smits family, we had no energy or desire to bake. So Wednesday became this week's baking day which worked out well since Seth and Dad were working on the basement and needed some refreshments.
Since we'd been away for so many days, I hadn't gone grocery shopping which limited the number of recipes that were even an option. Koen had suggested we make pumpkin muffins, but the last time I was at Meijer they didn't have a single can!!! Next time I find some I'll be stocking up on pumpkin! I sifted through some other muffin/bread recipes and came upon Pudding Bread. We had everything in the house except for the vanilla pudding, but we did have butterscotch pudding, so it was a simple substitution.
Ty is always excited about helping in the kitchen; he loves to lick the spoons and beaters. Koen wasn't going to help with this recipe, even when I reminded him that the rule was you had to help make it to help eat it. Ty and I had mixed everything and he had started in on his beater when Koen decided he wanted to lick a beater as well. Fortunately for him, the cinnamon and sugar still needed to be mixed. After he made the mixture he enjoyed a beater of his own.
Here's the recipe should you desire to have a taste:
Pudding Bread
1 box yellow cake mix
1 box instant vanilla pudding (or a flavor of your choice)
4 eggs
3/4 cup oil
3/4 cup water
Topping: 3/4 cup sugar
1 & 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
Beat together for 8 minutes. Grease 2 loaf pans. Pour layer of batter in each. Sprinkle 1/2 of the sugar mixture over the batter. Pour in remaining batter and sprinkle with remaining sugar. Bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes. Let cool and enjoy!
The butterscotch pudding version received rave reviews...Seth said it even reminded him of Friendship Bread.
