Pumpkin Banana Bread Recipe
Since my family is divided on mix ins for our banana bread, we decided to make our two loaves different flavors.
HOW TO ADD TOPPINGS TO QUICK BREAD
Once you make the batter, add them to the loaf pans. Cover one with chips and the other with cut pecans. (Be sure to press them into the batter slightly)
Baked up goodness. I am not sure if I consider this a breakfast treat, a dessert or just a snack bread.
Freeze the loaves for later as well. They freeze so nicely and come in handy during the busy holiday season.
Pumpkin and banana bread is a first for me, but not a last.
I think I gobbled up a loaf on my own. It is great with a smear of cream cheese.
