Pumpkin Bread
Pumpkin Bread

My grandmother clipped this pumpkin bread recipe from a magazine over 50 years ago, and it remains my most-cherished family recipe. One of my clearest childhood memories is baking the loaves with my mom in our 1970s-style kitchen and carting them off to every neighborhood potluck and holiday party. It's easy to make—just a bit of mixing and stirring, pop it in the oven, and, in about an hour, you'll have a house smelling of sweet autumn spices and two scrumptious, pumpkiny loaves.

This is a simple recipe that delivers big flavor, and it's hearty enough to serve as a meal.

Let's face it, part of the appeal of scrambled eggs is their quick and easy nature. So, who wants to bother with the low and slow approach when there's a faster, easier way?
