I had a lonely cup of pureed pumpkin sitting in my fridge. It was left over from last week's pumpkin donuts. It wasn't enough to make a pie, plus I don't have cloves. I tried making a pumpkin pie without cloves last fall and it just wasn't the same :(
It's hard to say if this is Banana Pumpkin Bread, or Pumpkin Banana Bread. Both flavors come through in this very moist fall-ish bread. Andy really liked it, Nick really liked it, Luke really liked it, and the floor got to taste some too. I sliced the bananas thin instead of mashing them before tossing them in the batter. The bread had actual banana pieces in it which made it so moist. Thanks food.com!
