Bakers- help me out!

I want to make mini pumpkin loaves...using my recipe that yields two regular loaves (9X13 pan) with a mini loaf pan that makes 9 loaves.

Do I need to adjust the cooking time?

SaranJonathan

Yes you need to decrease the baking time. I would check after 20 minutes and see how they are

Thanks! Do you think I should also adjust the oven temp?

Nope! Just bake until a toothpick comes out clean - like a cake!

ditto - like a cake/cupcake use the same temp but less time. same idea

FWIW: I prefer making the mini loaves instead of the large loaves. I tend to not feel so bad about eating a whole loaf by myself if it's "smaller" than the regular size loaf pans.

I am giving them as gifts. I thought if I did mini loaves I could do a few other items as well.  They look so cute I think I might prefer the mini loaves too!

They came out perfect- they needed exactly half the cooking time. Thanks everyone!
