Notes

Cover your pumpkin bread with plastic wrap or place in a plastic bag once it is completely cool to prevent it from drying out. Pumpkin bread will last 1-2 days at room temperature.
Fridge: Store pumpkin bread in a ziptop bag for up to 1 week.
Freezer: Wrap cooled bread tightly with aluminum foil or plastic freezer wrap and then place in a heavy duty freezer bag. You can store it in the freezer for up to 2-3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge or for 30 minutes on the counter before eating.
