  1. This was very moist and delicious! I will make it again & again... I used milk, and will try the yogurt next time - just to check out the difference. The only thing I'd change is the spices... it was VERY pumpkin spicy & I may back off on the quantities just a bit next time. I love the idea of cream cheese pumpkin butter mentioned in another review. :) Cheers!
     
  2. Love this recipe. Grandkids like sweet breads with choc. chips but put walnuts in our loaf !
     
  3. LOVE that this uses oil vs shortening! Made 18 muffins. Can't taste banana at all, which is ok. Spice is definitely more than a hint, as listed in recipe, but fine as is. I did use nuts and also threw in some mini chocolate chips, which I wd not do again. They are just lost in the harvest flavors.
     
  4. Made this tonight and it was wonderful! Very moist! Will be making this again and again!
     
  5. Made this yesterday, excellent very moist. Would definitely make again. Made Cream Cheese Pumpkin butter to spread on it.

Tweaks

  1. This bread was excellent and so easy to make. I made a few substitutions. Instead of milk I used sour cream and instead of all the spices I just used 1 1/2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. You definently need to give this one a try!
