This was a very good pumpkin bread recipe. Super moist and just enough spice. The only thing I changed was I only added 2 1/2 cups of sugar instead of 3. For my family and I that was plenty of sweetness, and the breads still turned out perfectly sweet with crisp caramelized edges. I made 1 large loaf and 4 smaller loaves for gifts. I couldn't be more pleased with this...unless maybe I add pecans next time ;). Thank you so much for this great recipe. Made for New Kids on the Block tag 08/10.
