Pumpkin Bread

Fall is all about making spice breads, cookies and things full of flavor. I love the way my house smells after I have been baking something like this. It's a smell that not even a candle can replicate! This is one of the most unbelievably moist breads and definitely is full of the spices of fall. Make a batch and share it with your neighbors, or put it away in your freezer for the holiday season. Hope you enjoy it!
