HEALTHIER DOWNEAST MAINE PUMPKIN BREAD
We updated this great old Maine recipe to be healthier by using white whole wheat flour, less sugar, and butter instead of oil. We also added pumpkin seeds and raisins. It's still moist and spicy, and wonderful for healthy holiday gift giving as bread or muffins!
