I love pumpkin and this is a really good bread. Great for bake sales, food gifts. Slice and add a little cream cheese for parties.

This recipe is close to my mom's, which she lost a few years ago. This bread is more bread than cake, which is just how it should be. I altered it by halving the sugar and subbing in dark brown sugar. Also, omitted the cinnamon, and subbed in 3/4 tsp ginger and 1/4 tsp nutmeg. The loaves did have to bake for 70 mins. Made two batches, one batch with 1 1/2 cups mix of walnuts/pecans, one batch without nuts. Both turned out great! So glad to have found this recipe.

My pumpkin bread turned out good! However, it's flat and doesn't rise like in the picture. How do you make it rise?

Good, basic recipe, rose beautifully. Needed to cook a bit longer in my oven. Needs a bit more spice or other ingredients to make it more interesting. I tossed mini chips and raisins with flour and mixed them into the batter. Put coarse sugar on top.

This is the best pumpkin bread ever. You can actually taste the pumpkin with this recipe, rather than just being able to taste the spices. Really moist as well!
