An enticing aroma wafts through my house when this tender cake-like bread is in the oven. I bake extra loaves to give as holiday gifts. My friends wait eagerly for it every year. -Linda Burnett, Prescott, Arizona

This is the easiest and tastiest pumpkin bread I have ever made. I made it with high school students for a coffee shop class and it was a huge hit! It's fantastic.

I have been making this recipe for probably over 10 years now. Everyone loves it and I have given the recipe to many people, who then make it one of their family favorites as well. It is very moist and just the right flavors.

LOVE this recipe! My pudding mixes tend to expire sometimes since I don't use them up fast enough. So, even shortly after the expiration date, I use my puddings to get rid of them in various baking recipes. Found this recipe and was quite excited that it uses the cook & serve puddings which I feel is harder to find recipes that uses them. I like using only cinnamon in this instead of having to use a variety of certain spices, like other recipes. It's an easy recipe. The flavor is GREAT! Somebody else mentioned using the coconut flavor. I will have to try it. I'll look at the other cook & serve flavors to see what else there is that I might like to try.

most flavorful, moist pumpkin bread I've ever had. And it freezes really well.

I made this after taking a break from making it for a few years. The baking aroma is wonderful, a tasty holiday treat.
