One reason I love fall is because it means pumpkin season! There are so many things you can bake with pumpkin! This bread is one of my favorite! It is like an upgrade of cinnamon swirl bread. It’s an upgrade in nutrition too, you add in a superfood! It is so tender, with a delicious spiced pumpkin flavor, and it has the wonderful sweetness of cinnamon.

And the aroma when it’s baking, lets just say no scented candle could ever come close to competing! I love this bread too because it is similar to a cinnamon roll with less fat and sugar, but you still get all those amazing flavors and more. If you are looking for all the flavors of fall in 1 sweet loaf of bread then you must give this a try!
