I like anything made with pumpkin, but this tender loaf is irresistible. Sometimes, I'll top it with a spicy glaze that feature nutmeg and cinnamon.

I forgot to mention that without the eggs I cut the flour back by 1/2 c. The outside has a nice crispy texture, the inside is dense of course, but very moist and flavorful.
I made this without eggs or nuts because I was out. Originally I only put in 1/2 t. nutmeg because I was looking at the glaze part of the recipe instead of the bread itself. I added the extra 1/2 t. and I think I would prefer just using the 1/2 t. (from tasting the dough "without eggs") ;) I also sprinkled cinnamon and sugar on top before baking instead of the glaze. The bread is baking now and my home smells so autumnal. I also didn't use a mixer, mixed by hand. Just out of the oven and the bread is quite good, even without the eggs and nuts. Next time I'll add both and cut the nutmeg down to 1/2 t. ;-)

The BEST quick bread recipe I have ever made! Turned out moist & full of flavor from all the spices. Once I saw how much dough this made, I switched to 9 x 5 pans - glad I did as they were huge loaves! I didn't make the glaze as the bread had enough flavor without it. Also, mine were perfectly done at 55 minutes. Ovens vary, so be careful not to over bake these.

I made this delicious bread and gave one loaf to my neighbor. My husband got mad at me for giving it away because he absolutely loved it. It is so good. The more you eat, the more you want and it is wonderful with a cup of coffee. I will make this over and over again.
