Jackie’s Tips:

Fall is almost here and anything pumpkin sounds really good right now!  This bread is really good with the coconut whipped topping or just plain butter.  I have been using a boxed pumpkin puree from Whole Foods.  It is Farmer’s Market brand and the only ingredient is organic pumpkin. If you are using canned pumpkin just make sure there are no hidden ingredients besides the pumpkin.

    I made this for breakfast on this Thanksgiving weekend and WOW! It is DELICIOUS! This is my first attempt baking without sugars/white flour/oil/milk and I don’t miss those ingredients at all. I will save this recipe and bake again. Thank you for the post!

      Hi Jessica,
      I’m so glad you liked the bread! I never feel like I’m missing anything without all of the “standard” ingredients and feel so much better without them in my recipes.
      Appreciate your comments!
