Pumpkin Bread

I LOVE this recipe!! It makes such a moist and yummy bread. I usually make 4 loaves at a time and it gets gone fast. Its great the next day with a little butter and a cup of coffee. You can always subsitute the pumpkin for sweet potato and it comes out perfect too!! I have also made it that way and its a hit! (just ask the people at Hoke Correctional lol)
