Pumpkin Pecan Bread {w/ cream cheese glaze}

Oh well – it’s time for some serious pumpkin recipes. Pumpkin is so packed with nutrients that I figure if I use it in enough recipes – we may get some of the benefits from it. Even if a lot of what we are making is goodies. It still has a little health benefit??!! No?? Well that’s okay – Pumpkin Pecan Bread w/ cream cheese glaze is so amazing, it doesn’t matter. The whole family loved having this for breakfast. It doesn’t get any more fall than a good ol’ pumpkin bread recipe.

You will just love how easy this is to make. Throw it all in the mixer & then bake. Nothing complicated – which is great for these busy days as we get closer to the holidays. Imagine enjoying this on maybe….Thanksgiving morning. I like to have several loaves for guests & then take some out to the neighbors the day before Thanksgiving so they can have breakfast already handled for the next morning.
