Notes

Store leftovers covered on the counter for up to 4 days or in the fridge for up to 1 week.
Make sure to use canned pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie filling. The only ingredient on the can should be “pumpkin.”
Don’t overmix your batter. Mix just until incorporated. If there are a few tiny lumps in the batter that’s fine. 
Optionally add some pecans or walnuts mixed into the batter if you like nuts inside your bread.
