It smells like fall :)

I just finished making (for the first time ever) pumpkin bread with cream cheese frosting. . . Mmmm. I love fall for so many reasons. One being pumpkins :) I love pumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, pumpkin cheese cake, pumpkin shakes, pumpkin cookies, and basically any food that begins with 'pumpkin'.. I have lots of new pumpkin recipes I'll be trying in the next few months, so prepare yourselves ;)

This bread is quite simple:
1 1/2 cups pureed pumpkin
1/2 cup applesauce
4 eggs

Beat all of the above until smooth. In a separate bowl, combine the following:

1 cup all-purpose flour
2/3 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Then slowly mix the flour mixture into the pumpkin mixture.

Grease 2 8x4x2'' loaf pans and divide the batter evenly between the two.
Bake for 30-35 minutes at 350 degrees.

Frosting:
8 ounces cream cheese
2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
a few drops of milk, if needed.

The end :)

Happy fall to you.
