    This pumpkin bread looks delicious and I will have to make it for my family soon. Today I am in search of a good raisin bread recipe. Yesterday I was in a Kroger store, planning to buy a loaf of raisin bread. I say planning because when I looked at the price of the small loaf-$4.49-I almost passed out! I came home with out the bread and want to make my own. Would appreciate someone sharing their recipe.

      If it helps Penny I usually use my favorite cinnamon bread bread recipe and just add raisins to it. Someone else might have an “official” recipe for you though.

          Here is one of my recipes for Cinnamon bread I have another one that I like even better but would you believe I have lost my cook book that I had it in and it was the only copy I have so will have to do some searching for it and if I find it I will post it or we will do a video on it.

      Made the pumpkin bread today and it was delicious. I reduced the sugar amount to 1 1/4 cups and it was plenty sweet enough. In fact, next time I make this I will try just using l cup of sugar. I used applesauce in place of oil, used 1/4 tsp of salt and 1 tsp of vanilla flavoring. It looked like too much batter for the bread pan that I have, so I baked it in a bundt pan. Enjoyed this bread a lot.

    Watched the youtube video last night. Made the bread and it was great. I am at 7700 ft elevation. I did cut the sugar to 1 cup and used pumpkin pie space, and made in muffin pans.

    I made this with my daughter last night and it was absolutely delicious! It was moist and not too sweet. It took me a little longer than an hour to cook so I put some foil over the top until it was done, then I took the foil off, and turned the oven off then let it sit a bit more to get rid of the moisture on top.

    BEAUTIFUL!!! This is the best pumpkin bread recipe I have ever used. I did use 1/2 cup of brown sugar and 1 cup of white sugar. I just made my second loaf and used orange juice instead of water.

    I noticed you said you could use pumpkin spice recipe for the spices but I have found the recipes vary in ingredients. Some have allspice and some don’t. But always only four ingredients. Can’t remember which ingredient is cut out.

      Like many recipes you can adjust, add, or leave out different spices to your own taste. For example if you are making stew you can add corn, green beans and carrots or you can leave out all or part of them. Pumpkin bread is the same way. You don’t need to add allspice if you don’t want to. Also what we are meaning here is that many people keep a container of our pumpkin spice recipe made up to use in many different recipes so we are saying you can use that in place of the spices in this recipe. Pretty much all of the spices used in our pumpkin spice recipe can be used in many “spice” flavored recipes.

          Ana just try using what ever you normally use for an egg substitute and they are things in the egg section that are egg substitutes. You can’t leave the eggs out of something like this because eggs in baking are usually used to bind things together and sometimes helps with the rising.

    I made a gluten free version and a sugar free version. In the gluten free version I used King Arthur gluten free flour I subbed 1/4 cup of the sugar for brown sugar and instead of individual spices I used 1 tsp of pumpkin pie spice. For the sugar free I used 1/2’cup Splenda and 1/4 cup brown sugar substitute and 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice. Both were a huge hit! I’m making 6 more loaves tonight. One of the gluten free eaters said “I got mad as I was walking out the door today because I was eating a piece of the pumpkin bread and realized it was the last bite of the last piece!”

        I made the pumpkin bread this afternoon and it came out amazing! I hate when people change a recipe then comment, but I did, sorry! I substituted the water for apple cider and I added a cup of chopped fresh cranberries tossed in a tablespoon of flour. I also made two smaller loaves instead of one bigger one. Thanks for the recipe and sorry for altering it.!
