Pumpkin Roundup #5: Pumpkin Bread

This roundup features my favorite way to eat pumpkin:  pumpkin bread.  I do not like it in a pie.  I do not like it with a fly.  But I do love it in a bread, while laying snugly in my bed.  That’s how I like to eat pumpkin.  I prefer a classic pumpkin bread, but I may just have to try some of these interesting recipes.

Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Bread

Lolly Jane

They had me at Snickerdoodle.  Snickerdoodle cookies are one of my favorites also.  So what better way to enjoy your pumpkin bread!

Cranberry-Pumpkin Bread

Positively Splendid

I think the addition of the cranberries will add a nice contrast to the sweetness of the bread.  And the pecans provide texture.

Crumbly Pumpkin Bread

Damn Delicious

A streusel topping always makes things tastier.  The crumb plays well against the moistness of the pumpkin bread.

Cream-Cheese Filled Pumpkin Bread

Averie Cooks
You can have your cheesecake and pumpkin bread at the same time.  The cream cheese layer adds some richness and creaminess to the bread.  And it looks pretty, too.
Which bread appeals to you most?
