Mmmmm, goodness gracious this bread is amazing! 😍 🤤 It’s even somewhat dangerous, I might add, as one bite will lock you into it’s flavorful grip until the entire loaf is demolished. This soft and spicy pumpkin loaf features cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, and smells heavenly while it’s baking. Once cooled somewhat and removed from the pan, slice and serve with a generous smear of Cinnamon Honey Butter, the perfect finishing touch!
When baked perfectly, this bread is SOOO nice and soft. It is delicious when accompanied by the honey butter, but I know it would be yummy served plain as well. The fact is, if you are a fan of pumpkin, you have GOT to try this recipe! I would describe it as “the flavors of fall baked into perfection”. Dooooo it!!! You won’t be disappointed.
