Disclosure: I received products in exchange for an honest review. No other compensation was received. The thoughts and feelings expressed are my own.
Even though my creations are not always a success, I love to cook. My Pinterest account has mainly foods, especially sweets, that I would love to someday try. I received a Good Cook Sweet Creations 4 cup loaf pan and their White Snowflake Parchment Paper and was asked to share a creation using these products. I made Spiced Pumpkin Bread.
I hand washed the 4 cup loaf pan and towel dried before using. This piece of bakeware should not go in the dishwasher or be washed with anything abrasive.
Then I mixed the batter and sprayed the 4 cup loaf pan lightly with grape seed oil. Any non-stick vegetable spray will do. The loaves baked for about 50 minutes and after cooling, popped out effortlessly! I did not have to loosen up the edges like with my other baking loaf pans. I use my own pumpkins and make purée to use in this recipe.
- 3 Tbsp. ground flax seed
- 1/2 c. plus 1 Tbsp. water
- 2 c. sugar
- 3/4 c. plus 2 Tbsp. melted organic coconut oil
- 2 c. pumpkin puree or one 15 oz. can pumpkin
- 3 c. unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp. ground ginger
- 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- 1. Grease the 4 mini-loaves with non-stick vegetable spray.
- 2. Preheat the oven to 350 degree Fahrenheit.
- 3. In a small bowl, combine the ground flax and water. Let the mixture rest for approximately two minutes.
- 4. In a large bowl, mix the sugar and coconut oil. Add the ground flax seed/water mixture and the pumpkin.
- 5. Then blend in the flour, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, salt, and baking powder to the large bowl. Mix well.
- 6. Pour the batter into the prepared pans. They should be about 3/4 full. Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour. Insert a toothpick in the center until it comes out clean.
- 7. Transfer to wire racks and let cool for 10 minutes. Remove the loaves from the pans and allow to cool on the rack until cooled completely.
- Once the loaves are cooled, they can be placed in plastic wrap and then in freezer bags and frozen. It takes approximately 1 hour to thaw.

My favorites to bake are a toss up between spritz cookies and cranberry vanilla bread.
David says
While dinner rolls aren’t a holiday item, this is the only time of year when we make them from scratch. I like to make these because the kids get a kick out of how much the dough will rise. They constantly want to check it, which actually hurts the rising a little because they poke at it.
