1. I noticed there is no salt - don't you need a bit of salt with baking soda and/or baking powder?

1. Some of the best pumpkin bread I've ever had. It was super moist and tender. I went with the raisin route as suggested in the recipe and it was perfect. Will definitely be making this one again and again!

3. Awesome loaf ! After reading some reviews I decided to sub applesauce for the oil (sorry I cannot bring myself to add a cup of oil to ANYTHING) I used egg beaters (again for "health") and I added a touch more cinnamon, dash of pumpkin pie spice, nutmeg and allspice (personal taste)

4. My son loves Starbucks pumpkin bread. I made this recipe adding additional spices and topped the loaf with toasted sunflower seeds(like Starbucks). He said I hit a homerun. My son and I thank you for such an outstanding recipe, not to mention the fact, that it's so much cheaper to make than buying it by the slice at Starbucks.

1. Instead oil - I used applesauce (1:1 ratio) I used whole wheat flour (that's all I buy) I used 1/2 cup of brown sugar and 1+1/2 cup white sugar (instead of 2c white wanted it a bit healthier) I used a full can of the pumpkin puree (the largest one they sell) In addition to the spices - I also added 1/4 tsp of cloves and 1/4 tsp of nutmeg I baked for the full time (65 mins), it probably could have been baked longer - but I didn't want it to burn!

3. YUMMMMY<br/>So glad this made two loafs! We ate the first one still piping hot from the oven.<br/>Like the last review I also used apple sauce instead of oil and used half brown sugar and half white sugar, then added some xtra spices as well, cloves, nutmeg, doubled the already called for spices.<br/>Will make this again and again!!

4. This recipe was very simple and easy to follow. [1st] I made it according to the recipe - and it was FANTASTIC. [2nd] time i substituted the eggs with applesauce (for an egg-less recipe) and loved it just the same. The end result was perfect - moist, spicey, not overly sweet,and YUMMIE!

5. This is the best way to get my toddler to eat more veggies! I use it to make mini-muffins instead of a loaf, and make the following changes:Grate one full zucchini and one carrot (or 4 mini ones) on the small side of the cheese grater and add to the pumpkin puree.I only use 1 1/4 cups sugarI use half white and half whole wheat flour.I don't use the ginger (personal preference).It takes a lot less time to cook (10-15 minutes depending on your oven) . These muffins freeze well and I can take out a few at a time.
