When fall rolls around, you want to bake pumpkin everything!  At least that’s me.  The nip in the air and the fall decor that begins popping up in the stores and markets make me feel warmly about fall.  And I just want to bake. This Pumpkin Banana Nut Bread is a good pumpkin recipe to start with.  Admittedly, it’s not as good as my very favorite Best Pumpkin Bread recipe.  That recipe is one that I have always been madly in love with.  But this one is a good one too.

This Pumpkin Banana Nut Bread recipe makes two loaves.  I love recipes that make two loaves because if you’re putting in the effort to make it… you might as well get double the results! Eat one loaf now, and put the other loaf in the freezer to eat later.  Just wrap it in foil (no need to wrap in plastic wrap first), label it, and store it in the freezer.  It’s also nice to be able to grab the loaf as a hostess gift if you need one at the last minute.

When sliced, Pumpkin Banana Nut Bread is very moist inside.  With all of that mashed ripe banana and pumpkin puree, how could it not be a moist bread?! This bread recipe is a good way to turn plain old banana bread into a fall pumpkin bread recipe.  FYI:  I usually leave out the nuts (which is why you don’t see them in the photos) since my family isn’t a great fan of nuts.
