Its finally time! Time for pumpkin bread, that is. The first cans of pumpkin puree have been sprouting up all over grocery stores this past week, and I cant think of a more perfect way to celebrate their arrival than baking up a batch of this moist, delicious pumpkin bread!
This recipe belongs to my best friends mom and is one I have practically grown up eating. No matter how many different versions of pumpkin bread I taste, this one will always remain my utmost favorite. Why? For me, its all about the crust. This particular version has the most perfect crunchy crust with a moist walnut-studded center.
It freezes beautifully, too, which works out because this recipe makes enough for two loaves. Freeze one or give one as a gift to a friend --- theyll love it!
Welcome back, pumpkin, weve missed you!
