Moist Pumpkin Bread Recipe

Pumpkin bread is my favourite. I love how pumpkin adds a nice moistness to the baked goodies. Ever since i made my pumpkin chocolate chip muffins which was quite few years back. I was looking forward to bake more pumpkin recipes. Finally made this yesterday and it was a success.

The bread was so moist and soft. Loved the texture which pumpkin gives to this bread. I used my homemade pumpkin puree for this. You can check the recipe here.
