This pumpkin bread recipe is a fall tradition in our house. We’ve been baking it for years and it remains a favorite for all of us!
It may not feel like fall outside yet, but it smells like fall inside! The smell is one of my favorite reasons for making this pumpkin bread all the time. We just love this bread. And we love the smell throughout the house as it bakes.

I couldn’t help but to share this picture of Olivia from 8 years ago helping me to make this bread! I posted this same pumpkin bread recipe on my blog way back then. Feel free to check out how adorable these girls were even when they were little and some fun birthday ideas on my old blog here.
Who else started a blogspot blog when they first came out? It was a fun way to let family know what we were up to. But now blogging has changed so much. Had I of known what the world of blogging would turn into then, I probably wouldn’t have ever stopped! But it was something I always missed doing so I am happy to be back at it. And even more happy to be able to provide financially because of it! If you want to start your own blog or learn a little more about how I provide through blogging, you can read about that here.
