One of the things I look forward to most in the Fall is pumpkin bread. I love, love pumpkin bread. I could eat it year round. Soft, moist, and the perfect blend of spices and pumpkin. This pumpkin bread is my favorite one.

It’s easy to put together and is one of the few breads I’ve made that tastes even better the next day.  The bread stays moist for days and keeps well in the freezer. I always bake a couple of extra loaves.

I’ve baked quite a few pumpkin recipes, but this classic pumpkin bread is one of my favorite pumpkin recipes.
