Pumpkin campfire loaf with @lifewaykefir #ad Ingr Pumpkin campfire loaf with @lifewaykefir #ad

Ingredients (makes 9x5” loaf)

1 teaspoon lapsang souchong tea
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup Lifeway pumpkin spice kefir
1 cup pumpkin puree
2/3 cup oil
2 large eggs
2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1. Heat the oven to 325F and grease a 9-inch loaf pan. 
2. In a spice grinder or blender, pulse together a few tablespoons of granulated sugar and the tea. Transfer to a large mixing bowl along with the remaining sugars, kefir, pumpkin, oil, and eggs. Whisk until smooth. 
3. Sift in the remaining ingredients and fold with a spatula until no streaks of flour remain. 
4. Transfer the batter into the greased loaf pan and bake until a toothpick inserted comes out with just a few moist crumbs (or 200F on a thermometer inserted in the center), about 60 to 70 minutes.
5. Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting on to a wire rack to fully cool.
