This is a great pumpkin bread/cake recipe. It makes three loaves. If you're looking for a savory bread with undertones of pumpkin, you're in the wrong place-this recipe has a relatively rich and wonderfully moist and sweet consistency. This recipe can easily can be used for a pumpkin bundt cake as well. This bread/cake does not need a glaze to stay moist, so if you insist on glazing it, only add glaze (perhaps as a dip or drizzle) as you eat it so you don't exceed the liquid capacity of the batter and cause it to fall apart. Refrigerate if not consumed within the first 1-3 days (depending on the temperature/humidity in your home). A close friend's mother's recipe (mad props Sarah H.)!
