These were really good! I added an extra cup of pumpkin like jessdavis suggested, I used nearly a tablespoon of pumpkin spice and topped the rest off with extra cinnamon. I also added a glug of vanilla. I baked 24 muffins for 25 minutes. I am baking the loaf right now. The muffins are so good! My husband accused me of trying to pass of pumpkin cupcakes as muffins, though these were much more moist than any cupcake. Next time I may try adding chocolate covered sunflower seeds instead of nuts.

I was looking for a simple pumpkin bread recipe and came across this one and used it because of all the great reviews and I had everything on hand that it called for (a big bonus when you have two kids and can't run to the store at the drop of a hat!) I decided to take some of the suggestions in the other reviews and added a tad more cinnamon and substituted homemade unsweetened applesauce for the oil. It made 12 muffins, a med. loaf and a small loaf...it's baking in the oven as I'm tying this and it smells so delicious! Can't wait to taste it...

I won't rate this 'cause I messed with the recipe a lot. I used some roasted butternut squash instead of pumpkin, and added extra spices (1/2 t ginger, 1/4 t nutmeg and cloves), halved the sugar (we are really trying to cut back), and used melted butter for the oil. In the end it was delicious, just like pumpkin pie, and fairly moist, but I think I'll up the squash/pumpkin by 1/2 a cup next time, and try to sub in some applesauce for 1/2 the butter. I didn't miss the extra sugar at all, but I'm in the habit of cutting it back in most recipes, and was looking for something more breakfast-y than a sweet snack. Come to think of it honey would be very yummy in this too.

sooo yummy. i halved the recipe to make one loaf as a test run first. I used 1/2 c applesauce in place of the 2 eggs since my daughter is allergic to eggs. I also did not add any nuts since I didn't have any on hand. I used libys canned pumpkin. very moist delicious bread. the loaf is almost gone already so I will definitely be making again. thnx for sharing :)
