I had left over pumpkin in my fridge, so instead of throwing it, i 'recycled' the pumpkin to make pumpkin bread. The texture is soft and moist. and easy to make, using balloon whisk only. This recipe can also be used for banana bread and i would like to share this with you:

300 gr pumpkin puree
60 ml olive oil
60 ml vegetable oil
60 ml orange juice
2 eggs beaten lightly
1 tsp of layer cake spice
50 gr chopped nuts (walnut or almond)
method:
to make puree of pumpkin: steam or bake the pumpkin till soft then smash/blend it.
whisk puree of pumpkin, olive oil, vegetable oil, till mixed well, then add egg and orange juice.
in a separate bowl mix the flour, sugar, salt, baking soda, spice and chopped nuts.
