If you are going to have a breakfast bread it should be filling, moist and delicious. This bread hits all three.
There was a lovely pumpkin flavor to the bread. It doesn’t taste manufactured either. I have had many pumpkin breads that just taste fake – fake pumpkin has a acidic aftertaste in my opinion. There is none of that in this bread!
The pumpkin also provides moisture. The bread is very moist even without butter.
The spices give you the feel of a pumpkin pie, but hand held!
The glaze was the best part. It was rich and smooth. I liken it to the glaze on top of the Starbucks Lemon Loaf. It’s the best part of the bread. This feel is similar here.
A very nice bread. It was tasty and filling!
