Pumpkin…’tis the season…Pumpkin Pie, Pumpkin Cake, Pumpkin Muffins, Pumpkin Cupcakes…and Pumpkin Bread!
I’m one of those strange people that don’t like Pumpkin Pie, but I love all the other baked goods, oh and Pumpkin Chai Tea Latte! This Pumpkin Bread is an absolutely favorite of mine and I look forward to it every Fall.
I’m not sure if you noticed, or saw me chatting about my new camera on Facebook, but I was able to purchase my first Canon DSLR a couple months ago. Doug and I have been learning the new settings and what works best. Sometimes when we take photos to share, we struggle with getting a few good ones, and other times, like the Pumpkin Bread, almost every photo was good. So bear with me…I have a few to share.
We love this Pumpkin Bread filled with nuts, but you can certainly leave them out too.
Wrap the Pumpkin Bread, or any bread, in a coffee filter and tie with a pretty ribbon for a very thoughtful and of course, budget friendly gift.
YUM! Now I need to go bake some more bread, because this is making me crave Pumpkin Bread!

I too do not care for pumpkin pie, but LOVE anything else with pumpkin in it!!!! I have been making pumpkin bread for more than 20 years now. I am not allowed in family holiday gatherings unless I have the pumpkin bread and the pecan pies!
Really great photos. I’m not a pumpkin pie lover either, but love pumpkin bread and other pumpkin desserts.

Your new camera takes wonderful pictures. I LOVE pumpkin pie, as long as it has a strong spice flavor. I don’t care for it if it’s to sweet. The pumpkin bread looks yummy, pinned it.
I love the flavor of pumpkin pie, but not the pie itself – I think it’s a texture thing. I do love everything else pumpkin however! Nice pics.

I agree about not liking pumpkin pie, but bring on everything else pumpkin! Can’t wait to try this.
As a side note…any chance the print option could include a picture…they are so nice…and I prefer to have pictures with recipes so I can have an idea of how it’s supposed to look.
Thanks Sandy!I will check on the picture, but the Ziplist plugin that I have currently doesn’t print the picture.
Beautiful looking bread!

this is VERY similar to my grandma’s recipe. I have successfully replaced most of the white flour with whole wheat pastry and 1/3 cup of the oil for applesauce…without anybody noticing. But, I’m afraid to mess with it any further. It’s absolutely delicious!

I also never cared for pumpkin pie until I ate pumpkin pie made with fresh pumpkin instead of the can stuff. Now I process fresh pumpkin every fall and freeze it. All the difference in the world.
I just made this recipe and it is delicious! I also added a bit of coconut and I made a few mini loaves and some jumbo muffins. Definitely a favorite! Thank you for sharing!
So glad you liked the Pumpkin Bread, Amy! Thanks for stopping by and letting me know!

Hi! I was wondering if you go with the pumpkin spice recipe do u still add the1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon? If not how much of the pumpkin spice recipe do u add? Thanks in advance
Hi Isabel, you can substitute the pumpkin spice blend for all the spices, equal amount. So this recipe you would use 3 teaspoons pumpkin spice blend which equals the 3 different spices in the recipe,
Thanks for stopping by!
