  1. This is a real winner. The bread is tender and smells so good when it is coming out of the oven.
     
  2. Lovely, tender pumpkin loaf. I was in pumpkin heaven. I do love all the warm spices associated with pumpkin pie and did not hesitate to add 1/4 tsp each of ground cloves and allspice. Yum!
     
  3. Very good pumpkin bread! Everyone liked it. I sprinkled the top and sides with brown sugar prior to baking so it would have crunchy edges. Other than that, no changes.
     
  4. This bread turned out very moist and browned perfectly. I added 1/2 cup of butterscotch chips to the batter before pouring. Thanks for bringing fall into my home.
     
  5. mmm! This turned out wonderful! I lowered the fat by substituting applesauce for 3/4 of the one cup of oil and only used 2 cups of sugar. I made them into muffins and sprinkled a little brown sugar on top. The sugar caramelized and made a yummy crust.

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
