Pumpkin Loaf

Awesome loaf ! After reading some reviews I decided to sub applesauce for the oil (sorry I cannot bring myself to add a cup of oil to ANYTHING) I used egg beaters (again for "health") and I added a touch more cinnamon, dash of pumpkin pie spice, nutmeg and allspice (personal taste)

My son loves Starbucks pumpkin bread. I made this recipe adding additional spices and topped the loaf with toasted sunflower seeds(like Starbucks). He said I hit a homerun. My son and I thank you for such an outstanding recipe, not to mention the fact, that it's so much cheaper to make than buying it by the slice at Starbucks.

YUMMMMY
So glad this made two loafs! We ate the first one still piping hot from the oven.
Like the last review I also used apple sauce instead of oil and used half brown sugar and half white sugar, then added some xtra spices as well, cloves, nutmeg, doubled the already called for spices.
Will make this again and again!!

Simple, used ingredients I had on had, moist, and not too sweet. The only thing I will change is more spices. I want my pumpkin bread to be brimming with spices! Thank you!

This recipe was very simple and easy to follow. [1st] I made it according to the recipe - and it was FANTASTIC. [2nd] time i substituted the eggs with applesauce (for an egg-less recipe) and loved it just the same. The end result was perfect - moist, spicey, not overly sweet,and YUMMIE!

I used rye flour, brown sugar and added a little vanilla. This one is a keeper! Thanks!

Wonderful moist tasty loaf! I used splenda instead of the sugar and only had one cup of raisins to add. I added extra cinnamon and ginger. it turned out perfect and delicious. I have already had an order to make this again, DH loves it!! and the two loaves will not last long with our son visiting!! thanks for posting!

This is the best way to get my toddler to eat more veggies! I use it to make mini-muffins instead of a loaf, and make the following changes: Grate one full zucchini and one carrot (or 4 mini ones) on the small side of the cheese grater and add to the pumpkin puree. I only use 1 1/4 cups sugar I use half white and half whole wheat flour. I don't use the ginger (personal preference). It takes a lot less time to cook (10-15 minutes depending on your oven) . These muffins freeze well and I can take out a few at a time.

I got a great deal on some pumpkin puree at the supermarket (3 for $1) so I needed to find something to do with it. Am I ever glad I found this recipe. The loaf is fabulous. I love how moist and spicy it is! I made it just as written but like the idea of other reviewers who used applesauce in place of the oil, so next time I will try that. Will definitely make this again and again. Thx Leslie!

I love this recipe!! I also use the apple sauce instead of oil and it always turns out great! I recently made this recipe as muffins instead of bread and it was just as good as it always is. Thanks for the great recipe and thanks to those who suggested replacing the oil with applesauce.

This was a great, dense, sweet bread, perfect for fall! Thank you to Gruenes for the idea to use applesauce instead of oil. One cup of unsweetened applesauce was just perfect, keeps all the taste, and the fat is nearly gone from the bread! Great stuff!

Great, simple recipe! I added 2oz of pureed carrots as I was 2oz short of pumpkin. 1/8 tsp ginger, 1/8 tsp all spice, 1/4 tsp nutmeg along with the 2 tsp of cinnamon. Instead of raisins, I added 2 cups of pecan pieces...wow! Super great recipe and turned out fantastic the first time I tried it!

Great tasting pumpkin loaf. I used whole wheat flour instead of white and applesauce instead of the oil. I also left the raisins out as my two year old doesn't care for them. It turned out very moist. Great flavor. I cut the recipe in half and made four mini loaves and baked for about 40 minutes in our gas oven. It probably could have been in for about 45 minutes. Excellent recipe!!!

This bread is very good!! Very moist, Not too heavy on the spices. Everything blended very well. Very easy to make. I will be making this again. I made this for the Camera-Less Chefs game. Thank you Leslie for choosing me.
