Pumpkin Bread Recipe
Remember when I shamelessly told you about my new addiction to this Homemade Caramel Sauce? I also told you about how I was putting it on pretty much everything in sight. I wasn’t lying. I’m hear today to introduce you to the place my love affair all started. Right here with the first Pumpkin Bread Recipe that I drizzled it on. Then I promptly fell in love with it.
You know what? This Pumpkin Loaf is actually amazing naked and with no caramel drizzle but you know me, I’m all about taking everything over the top.

Pumpkin Bread with Caramel Glaze
I should really rephrase that. I’m all about taking food over the top the rest of life I’m not really that over the top. Let’s take the nursery for instance. I’m down to 5 weeks and you’d think I’d have that nursery decked out and ready to go. Not so much at all. I still have Miss K’s name hanging up due to the fact I have no idea what else to hang up there. I never really embraced redecorating it when we moved and instead moved onto decorating her big girl room so it’s pretty dull. Then I always think do I wait until I know the gender because we don’t find out and use a gender specific accent color? Then again if I do that then it will probably never, ever get finished.
See my dilemma? I’m rationalizing the fact that it’s not ready to go and I’m sorta ok with that. Who really goes into a nursery other than the parents? Not to many people. So if you are coming to visit me after I have a baby I advise you not to ask to see the nursery and if you do then don’t expect it to be all decorated up and perfectly cute!

I love this recipe! I’ve made it for friends, family and coworkers who always ask for more. I was wondering if there is anyway to reduce the amount of sugar in the loaf, without compromising the consistency of it?
Julie Evink says
I’m sorry I’ve never tried it! You could use a Truvia or something maybe? Or just cut back a little and see how it goes!

Hehe, I totally hear ya, we didn’t decorate our second one’s nursery either and every time someone wants to see her room, we make up an excuse. This pumpkin bread would be the perfect distraction, it looks amazing and I will gladly take any glaze that your husband doesn’t want 🙂
