This pumpkin bread is a fall favorite of ours!! It’s lower in fat than most out there and super yummy to boot! We love the cream cheese hidden inside… this pumpkin bread is moist and delicious. I found the recipe in a magazine while waiting at a doctors office a few years ago, the receptionist was super nice and photocopied the page for me! I honestly don’t remember which magazine it came from?? I slightly adapted this pumpkin bread recipe and have since lost the original but it’s a keeper. WOW!! you’re going to love this bread…
