Among all my pumpkin bread recipes, this caramel-glazed creation is the pick of the crop. Often, I'll wrap up a lovely loaf as a homemade gift for teachers and Sunday school leaders. -Brenda Jackson, Garden City, Kansas

The caramel glaze is the best part. I recommend sifting the powdered sugar before stirring it in.

Outstanding recipe!!! Took this bread on a weekend trip with friends and they RAVED about it. This one's a keeper, and so simple. I did change it up slightly as we don't care for nutmeg; I used 1 1/2 teaspoons of Vietnamese cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves. You could substitute pumpkin pie spice with great results too, I'm sure. It was difficult to remove from the pans. Next time I'll grease and flour the pans and put waxed paper in the bottom.Oh yeah, I skipped the caramel glaze due to time constraints. I have no doubt that it's fantastic ... I'll try it next time.Try Vietnamese cinnamon, you'll never go back to the grocery store variety. I get mine at a local health food shop that carries bulk herbs and spices.
