Delicious Pumpkin Bread
An enticing aroma wafts through my house when this tender cake-like pumpkin 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

I have been making this delicious pumpkin bread ever since I saw it in my Taste of Home magazine probably 20 years ago! Every time I make it, people ask me for the recipe. I also like to bake it for friends and family around the holidays and surprise them with it. Since it makes 2 decent size loaves and is so easy to bake, it’s just perfect for this! I sometimes also add a brown sugar and toasted pecan topping with a bit of melted butter. This is also a great starter recipe for beginner cooks - it’s impossible to mess up! Wow! So good ??! Definitely a favorite
Nice and moist! I added a few walnuts - makes a big batch (I used 7 smaller mini loafs pans)
The bread was good. It wasn’t as sweet as I suspected, but it was moist and easy to put together.
This is the best Pumpkin Bread recipe. Made it exactly as suggested it was GREAT. Made two regular size loaves. Thank you for the recipe.
Try this with INSTANT pumpkin pudding mixes for 1 of the vanilla pudding mixes.You can usually only get them in the fall, but the keep a long time, so stock up. I usually cut down on the sugar by 2T or so, b/c the pudding has sugar in it.
Made this today
I’m sorry I have not made this bread yet. I have a question about the eggs. Is it possible to get the same results by using egg beaters substituting the eggs ? I’m very anxious to try this and would love to cut back a little on the cholesterol if I can.
I have been making this recipe for over 40 years. It came from my grandmother's family. We use instant vanilla or coconut cream pudding. I made it once with the cook style of pudding and it wouldn't firm up. Been using instant ever since. It is a melt in your mouth pumpkin bread ??!
