Delicious Pawpaw Bread

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Delicious Pawpaw Bread.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).

2. Step 2

   While that warms up, take an 8-inch loaf pan and give the bottom a light spritz of cooking spray to ensure your delicious creation slides out easily later.

3. Step 3

   In a mixing bowl, combine some white sugar with softened butter, and beat them together until the mixture is smooth and creamy—this is where the magic begins! Next, crack in a couple of eggs and keep beating until everything is well blended.

4. Step 4

   Now, it’s time to add the star of the show: the pawpaw pulp.

5. Step 5

   Pour that in along with a splash of tepid water, and mix until everything is combined—this should take about 30 seconds.

6. Step 6

   Gradually fold in the all-purpose flour, and if you’re feeling adventurous, toss in some chopped walnuts for a delightful crunch.

7. Step 7

   Add in the baking soda, salt, and baking powder, stirring gently until just combined; remember, we want to keep it tender, so avoid overmixing.

8. Step 8

   Now, pour the luscious batter into your prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly to ensure a beautiful rise.

9. Step 9

   Slide the pan into your preheated oven and let it bake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes.

10. Step 10

    You’ll know it’s ready when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean—what a satisfying moment! Once baked to perfection, let the bread cool in the pan for about 30 minutes.

11. Step 11

    This is the hardest part, but trust me, the wait will be worth it when you slice into that warm, fragrant loaf and serve it up.

12. Step 12

    Enjoy every bite of your homemade pawpaw bread!.
