Most wonderful fall pumpkin bread!! I made this recipe into muffins. (The recipe for this bread is slightly different than the one for Pumpkin Cranberry Muffins. This bread recipe has brown sugar and more seasonings.) I was able to get 24 muffins and cooked them at 325 degrees for about 25 or 27 minutes. I think the muffin portion helped us control ourselves when eating them. They are DELICIOUS warm with a little butter.

Just made this bread today. I doubled the recipe so we could have a loaf at home, & I could give a loaf to a family my husband knows. It turned out fine, though I had to increase the baking time at least 30 min. My husband told me his friends have already enjoyed the pumpkin bread..the dad had 3 pieces right away! We've also enjoyed some. A moist bread, with a great combination of pumpkin, pecans & cranberries. Will be making this again!
