Okay, so I love it when Fall comes around, cooler weather, changing colors, warm sweaters and scarves, jeans and cute boots. But mostly, that’s when the pumpkins come back. The Pumpkin Spice Latte’s and all things pumpkin flavored. Well, I came across this recipe last Fall and I’ve made it a couple of times since and it has had some amazing reviews. It’s also really simple and easy to make, and a must to make when the “Fall Season” rolls around! I’ve made it with fresh pumpkin and canned pumpkin as well, both are amazing!
So here it is…

This is where baking the bread can get a little bit tricky just because baking times can vary with this bread. I tend to bake the bread for an extra 10-15 minutes (depending on how full the pans are)Makes 2-3 loavesEnjoy!!!!!
