An Easy & Delicious Fall Recipe
It’s no secret that pumpkin is one of the most popular ingredients and flavors of the fall season. As a chill enters the air and the leaves begin to change colors, we’re certain to see pumpkins all around… in decorative scents, drinks, and food! With the fall season quickly approaching, I thought I would share one of my favorite seasonal recipes… homemade Pumpkin Bread! What better way to get into the fall spirit than filling your home (and bellies) with the fabulous aromas of the fall season?!
This recipe truly couldn’t be easier to make… minimal equipment and steps required (no mixer needed)! It’s sure to fill your home with the essence of fall, spreading the fabulous aroma of spiced pumpkin throughout your kitchen and home. This recipe is filled with flavor and has been a family favorite for years. I love adding a twist to the traditional recipe from time to time… adding pecans, walnuts, or chocolate chips for enhanced texture and flavor. Further, embrace the fall season by baking this recipe in this fabulous botanical pumpkin loaf pan! I hope you love this recipe as much as I do, enjoy!

Notes
TIFFY’S TIPS:
- Careful not to overbake as this produces a dry quick bread.
- Freeze loaves for the holidays! Wrap loaf in foil, plastic wrap, or place in an airtight container. Freeze for up to 3 months.
- Substitute walnuts or chocolate chips for the pecans.
- I love having quick bread on hand for last minute holiday gifts!
