If you aren’t exactly crazy for dessert, why don’t you try making nice, spicy pumpkin bread? It’s sweet, but totally savory. The best part is, it’s so easy, even a novice baker can make this.
 
Now, I cannot take all the credit for this recipe. I got it from my dear friend Bethy. This recipe was given to her mom while her family was stationed in Norway…in the 1980’s. I am so glad that this recipe made its way into my hands! 
 
Part of me gave into making this because I down right HEART pumpkin bread. And really, what am I waiting for? It’s Thanksgiving…would I really consider making anything but this? I didn’t think so.
 
A bread like this kneads NO introduction…(no kidding…there is NO kneeding…just stir and pour.) See…I told you it was easy!
