Excellent and easy pumpkin bread. It was a bit hit with a light spread of whipped cream cheese and a touch of sugar!

Great bread! I added golden raisins and chopped pecans. My husband loved it, nice and spicy! Carole in Orlando

Very good flavor, very moist, but a bit heavy. I would suggest reducing the oil by 2 Tbsp, and adding 1 teas. vanilla extract.

Oh, yes! It was just delightful. I used golden raisins and chopped walnuts. The house smelled great while it was cooking. This is a keeper!

Nice balance of spices, but as the other review said, a little heavy if you're looking for a light textured bread. I'll make it again. Nice recipe.
