Pumpkin Spice Bread

You can't go wrong with pumpkin, and it's kind of shame that we don't use it year round. So I'll be whipping up as many pumpkin dishes as I can this fall and probably into winter. Today I'm sharing a from-scratch pumpkin spice bread. It's perfect with your morning coffee, as a sweet treat after lunch, and really to nibble on whenever.
