Moist & Delicious Pumpkin Bread

BlondieItaliana's Note:

The name says it all, this is a very moist & delicious pumpkin bread... Great for Fall baking, bake sales, Holiday's, gift giving, and just savoring. This bread needs nothing, but a dollup of whipped cream makes it look pretty :-) I happen to have a very large loaf pan & that's what I use, not sure if you need 2 loaf pans or not for this, but I have also made this in a rectangular aluminum pan.

Yes, it is moist and delicious. I made small loaves for Christmas gifts to neighbors and friends and it turned out very good. Thanks for the recipe!!

My husband loves pumpkin and I make pumpkin recipes all year long, this was so good and so moist and I want to try mini loaves to freeze next time.
