    I used fresh cranberries and pecans instead of the dried cranberries, and walnuts. This bread was easy to make and I found it to be fabulous!!

    I had sweetened craisins on hand and decreased the sugar to 2 cups with excellent results. A nice, moist bread that bakes well into muffins, too.

    This pumpkin bread departs from the typical recipe with the addition of cranberries. The cranberries really add a surprise for the tastebuds. I brought this bread as a hostess gift and the recipient asked for the recipe!
