This combination of pumpkin, nuts and dates makes a flavorful bread with a beautiful golden look. The surprise inside— a rich creamy swirl— is almost like a luscious layer of cheesecake in each slice.

This recipe is the best pumpkin bread I have ever tasted, My family & neighbors just love it. I made the (3) loaves for a pot luck & it just vanished before my eyes. I made one change in recipe, I used butter instead of oil. tasted great either way. I also used pecans not walnuts.

This was such a hit with all of the family; that my father-in-law bought me some new bread pans the next day.

I highly recommend this trying this recipe, you won't regret it. One thing I would do is cut the filling in half, it makes quite a bit.

This pumpkin bread was over-the-top good. I omitted raisins only because I didn't have them. Very much like a pumpkin roll but easier to handle.

My favorite pumpkin bread. I make it without the nuts, walnuts, & dates. It is great to serve in the fall - I should check to see if I have all the ingredients to make it again.
