Pretty great. My first-time-through modifications (based on everyone else's reviews) are also my recommendations: - go a little light on the flour (either sift it or fluff the flour as you scoop out your cupfuls) - go a little heavy on the pureed pumpkin - DOUBLE the pumpkin pie spice - add 1 tsp. cinnamon - before putting in oven sprinkle top of loaves with chopped pecans (or other nuts) and a blend of cinnamon & sugar I used four mini-loaf pans and baked them for 50 minutes at the recommended temp - they came out perfect. A lovely color texture and flavor - pecans perfectly roasted. Recipe seems like it would accommodate even more moisture. For a denser bread perhaps add another egg more pumpkin or a little applesauce next time? xox
If I would have reviewed this recipe the day I made it I would only have given it three stars. It didn't immediately have the strong spice and pumpkin flavor I was looking for. However the next day I tried it again and I changed my mind. This is a moist bread that keeps well and improves in flavor. Next time I think I will top with a cinnamon-sugar mixture as mentioned in a previous review (just to see if it makes a difference on that first day).
Very good. I added 1-1/2 cups of raisins that had been plumped in boiling water cloves nutmeg and a touch of ginger along with a lots of cinnamon Yummy definitely a 5 star recipe from the whole gang I mixed this by hand with a wire whisk and a spatula so easy too always a bonus
When I made this bread my family and friends inhailed the bread. A change of pace you could add nuts to the bread to make it more interesting. (use 1 cup of chopped nuts in the mixture place it in last) ENJOY
Really great bread! So good I gave it as gifts. I did a bit more cinnamon along with the pumpkin pie spice. I also added raisens and walnuts. It was really yummy!
It wasn't very moist although the flavor was fine. But I don't think I'll make this recipe again.
I won't make it again. The last word I would use for this recipe is "awesome." It was dry salty and below average. I made it 3 times. The first time it was dry and salty. The second time I added raisins and walnuts. It tasted dry and salty but with raisins and walnuts. The third time I added extra sugar extra oil and one additional egg (along with the raisins and walnuts; this third time it was a completely different recipe and tasted pretty good...but still not "awesome." Bottom line don't bother.
This bread was very moist.I followed the recipe butI checked for doneness at 50 mins. It took 55 mins. to cook. I would add raisens pecans and maybe a little more pumpkin pie spice next time but still pretty tasty.
This Recipe is AWESOME!!! I made it with 3 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon. The bread came out moist and delicious!
