Notes

A wonderful pumpkin bread to herald in the fall season! This recipe is great made ahead and added to freezer bags in the freezer. Simply thawout overnight or warm slightly in  the microwave when serving.
This is wonderful served with fresh whipped cream and a cup of coffee for a perfect brunch or afternoon gathering.
Enjoy!
