I love this bread. I don't change a thing and it always comes out wonderful. Last time I made this around Christmas time and I froze one of the loaves. Just took it out of the freezer, let it defrost and it still is as delicious as the day I baked it.

Great recipe. Just a couple of changes, used half white and half brown suger,1tsp vanilla. Baked them in small loaf pans(6) for 35 to 40min. Only 2 of use so small loafs works out great. I freeze 5 and we ate the other one. (with a little cream cheese frosting, very good)

I made this recipe with fresh pumpkin instead of canned and baked in a bundt pan. It took a little bit longer to cook that what the recipe states. It came out absolutely amazing. So moist! Great recipe to keep and make year after year.

I made this recipe yesterday and it was the absolute BEST Pumpkin Bread I have ever made. However, it took 1 hr 15 minutes to bake. Now it could be my oven but other baked products bake in the correct time so I really don't think that would be the reason. Since I am severely allergic to nuts, I actually threw in a couple handfuls of raisins into the batter. It turned out wonderful!

I had never made pumpkin bread before and was a little worried about all the different variations of recipes online but when I came across this one and it's positive reviews I thought I would give it a try. It was wonderful!!! The bread was sweet and moist and my husband went on and on about how much he loved it, lol I did have to bake it a few mins longer than the suggested time because mine wasn't done all the way in the middle but over-all this is a 5 star in my book!
