This is my go-to pumpkin bread and I always get rave reviews. It's quick and easy to make and wonderfully moist. Plus you'll end up with 3 loaves! Perfect for entertaining or to freeze one for later use. Don't skip the sifting of the dry ingredients--it really adds to the texture.

FRUIT & PUMPKIN BREAD

This started as zucchini bread; I changed to pumpkin, altered the spices, and cut out most of the fat. The applesauce makes it so moist that it's very difficult to tell that there's no fat in it; this is one of my favorites to bring in to work.
