I've made this recipe over and over again and I love it more and more every time. It is easy but looks impressive with the layers. I look forward to fall simply so I can make this. Definitely recommend it!

I made the pumpkin loaf for the family at Thanksgiving. Everyone loved it. I baked it in a 9.5 x 5.0, which is slightly larger and it filled the loaf pan. I had to bake it 65 minutes and at that it barely got done,but when it was done it was very good!

The texture is off. It didn't come out very bread like. I wish there was a stronger pumpkin flavor. I like the died of the cream cheese filling and will try it in another bread recipe.

Extremely moist! I will definitely make this again-maybe adding a little extra cinnamon.

Dense, bad texture. I think the balance is off. Don't love the flavor--bland. Won't eat what's there it's so bad. Total waste.
