There are two kinds of pumpkin bakers in this world. - There are the kind who go crazy gung-ho with pumpkin during the autumn season and there are the kind who back with pumpkin all year long.
I am actually the kind who bakes with it all year long, but it only really makes sense to share it here during the fall months.
This is a great basic quick bread recipe, you'll notice it has not butter or fats in the recipe, you use the pumpkin for that - isn't that awesome!
The spiciness of the bread makes for an amazing disguise if you are introducing whole grain flours to your family.
This bread smells like the holidays when it is baking - all kinds of pumpkin goodness with cinnamon and cloves. It is the best recipe for the time between Halloween and all the pumpkin spice goodness and Thanksgiving and Christmas with the delicious gingerbread spices and tastes.
