    i exchanged the 1 cup oil with 1 cup unsweetend applesauce for less calories.
    also, i used a 9 slot, wilton mini muffin pan and yielded 25 loaves.

    Loved this! Split the sugar, half brown, half white, next time I would probably cut some out. This is a massive recipe so be prepared! - 2/14/12

    Wonderful! I substitued Splenda for the sugar (cuts 720 cals!), used applesauce instead of oil (one cup is 1900 cals!!!), and it was DELICIOUS. Made an entire large loaf of bread and 12 muffins. Caution--don't use muffin cups--not enough oil in this recipe to peel the wrappers off cleanly. - 1/22/12

    Oh my sweet heavenly goodness!!! I also substituted whole wheat flour and halved the sugar with brown. I added some ground clove and allspice as well. I made 12 muffins and 1 loaf. For the muffins I placed a whole pecan on top and brushed maple syrup on the top just before they were finished! Great! - 10/17/11

    I made this for Christmas because my mom used to make Pumpkin Bread when I was younger. I substituted cinammon applesauce for oil and used wheat flour. Mommy loved it! - 12/27/11

    Easy and delicious! I used 1 tsp of both cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice and grated a little fresh nutmeg. I also subbed one cup of granulated sugar with one cup brown sugar. - 12/16/11

    made approximately 35 muffins...make sure to tap the muffin pan before putting in oven, otherwise you end up with a air pocket on the bottom because the batter doesn't settle on its own. - 11/11/11

    This is very good. I used the applesauce substitution as suggested. I made mini muffins & one regular size loaf. Stocking the freezer with some yummy snacks. - 11/9/11

    Made this last night to use up some leftover pumpkin. Very easy to make and it tastes delicious!! I ended up with 2 big loaves and 5 mini loaves. I'm going to freeze the mini loaves so I can enjoy this over the next couple of months. I'll definitely be making it again - thanks Jen! - 3/16/11

    This is my first time ever to make pumpkin bread. I switched things up a little and it came out really yummy. I used 1/2 cup of apple sauce and 1/2 cup of oil. Instead 3 cups of regular sugar I used 2 cups of regular and 1 of brown sugar. I also added a few walnuts on the top. - 12/13/10

    Very good, I used mostly wheat flour, used 1/2 of the oil and the rest applesauce. Also, I used Splenda Sugar Blend in place of the sugar. We'll see what the girls at work think of it tomorrow! - 10/27/10
