Pumpkin Bread

By cacelias

Delicious bread that reminds you of fall/winter....Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas! This recipe is from Diana Hadden who dropped some off at our house upon our return from Italy and Paris! I added some glaze on top, just to give it a little bit of sweetness. You could also do a cream cheese frosting, if you desired a richer topping!
