Pumpkin Zucchini Bread (and Muffins!)


I truly enjoy trying new recipes. I've been itching to make some type of pumpkin baked good for awhile and I've finally gotten to it! I love the smells that come from baking. When I'm baking any type of bread I always think of my grandmothers. Each grandma had her individual bread(s) I (and most of the family) enjoyed. Grandma Bert always made dinner rolls and zucchini bread (with fresh zucchini from her garden). Grandma Alice use to make the best homemade bread. Meals were not complete on either side of the family without dinner rolls or sliced homemade bread. I have not made any bread with yeast, yet, but I'll get there (to at least try it once). Dinner rolls sound like a good challenge to tackle.

They look and smell delicious! 
Now back to the recipe at hand. I stumbled across this recipe when searching for different recipes using pumpkin as an ingredient. The Allrecipes app assisted greatly in my search. It was very easy to make and I made a slight alteration. Instead of making two loaves like the recipe dictates, I made one loaf and a dozen muffins. The muffins will make it easier to take to work tomorrow and share with the girls. The kitchen smells delicious and I can't wait to try the muffins tomorrow at lunch! I tried a slice of the bread and it was very good!  I hope they like the muffins!
