When I think of Fall, Pumpkin Bread immediately comes to mind. I actually usually always add Pumpkin to my banana bread recipes. Last year I bought a couple of small pumpkins to use as displays, and when Halloween was over, I turned them into baby food for Squish. (He approved when he finally got to try some a few months later.) That is what I love about pumpkin; you can freeze some and save it … [Read more...]
