Best Ever Pumpkin Bread
This is just too yummy!! I had 3 recipes for pumpkin bread that were just "ok". So, I played around with the recipe and this is what I came up with. And let me just say WOAH!! So good! I have been using this same recipe since 2012 and I am never tempted to switch.
This Pumpkin Bread recipe makes 3 or 4 loaves depending on your bread pan size, so use your BIG bowl when mixing up the batter. I like to use the foil baking pans and give these to friends and family and teachers. My kids also love this as an after school snack.
I have a recipe for DIY Pumpkin Spice that you can make yourself and keep in your spice cabinet to add it to All.The.Things. It is so easy and I am certain that you have all the individual spices you need.
Whip up this delicious pumpkin bread and enjoy how comforting your kitchen smells. This makes 3 loaves, so freeze the extra or pass some along to your neighbors, friends, family, and coworkers.
