Pumpkin Bread
Delicious pumpkin bread recipe that I got from my grandmother when I was a young cook with my own family.
Note: I have substituted my own cooked pumpkin puree in this recipe for years and it gives it a wonderful fresh taste. I have used jack-o-lantern type pumpkins, but it is even better when you use a sweet pie pumpkin. Pie pumpkins are smaller, sweeter, less grainy textured pumpkins than the usual jack-o-lantern types. See recipe to cook your own pumpkin.
