I relied on this foolproof recipe when teaching our children to cook. Each slice is dotted with plump cranberries and flecks of orange peel.

I just made this bread for Thanksgiving Dinner, but have to make another tonite!!! My husband helped himself to a generous portion, stating it was the best bread of all the pumpkin recipes I ever made. So I too tasted it--delicious, great taste, right amt of spices, moist; the streusel carmalizes on the pumpkin, adding and color. Will definately remember this recipe!

PS. I did use 3/4 cup Pure Maple Syrup and decreased amt of liquid by 2 tbsp instead of 1 cup of sugar.

I did not have a good experience with this recipe. The bread was very crumbly even though I mixed it just until moistened and baked it for the minimum time (65 minutes) I was not wild about the taste either. I thought there was too much orange peel, too much allspice and too much nutmeg. Cinnamon and vanilla would have been better. I will not make it again, sorry.
