Holiday Pumpkin Nut Bread

"My son starts asking for this pumpkin bread before Thanksgiving. I make 2 or 3 batches every week between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Closer to Christmas I make tons for friends, neighbors and my hubbys golf buddys!!! This is probably my favorite thing to make for the Christmas holidays. Tie it with red and green ribbon and it makes a sweet gift."

  1. Lovely pumkin bread! I made this in a bundt pan, and sprinkled it with icing sugar - gorgeous! I doubled the cinnamon and cut back the cloves a little bit (used about 2/3 tsp.) It is out of this world delicious with the spices. Thanks so much for sharing this special recipe, Carol! Made for My 3 Chefs.
