PUMPKIN BANANA BREAD

Pumpkin Banana Bread is so good for breakfast with coffee or as a snack anytime.

I love anything with pumpkin in the recipe.  This is a great way to use up bananas and this bread would make a great gift.  It seems I am always looking for ways to use bananas in recipes!  You might also like our recipe for cinnamon donut muffins.
