    20/12/2015 I had to cook it about 15-20 minutes longer than called for. My pan is an 8x5 so that's probably why. The flour was slightly hard to fold in because the wet ingredients were so sticky, so I was worried I over worked it, but it rose beautifully! As a base it's a great recipe that could benefit from some add ins like cranberries, pecans, candied ginger etc,
    ~Letting it sit overnight, it's much more flavorful and the spices are way more pronounced. I think this is one of those loaves that taste better the longer it sits! *****5 stars for the next day! more here: Pumpkin Spice Molasses Bread

    Oh, that looks great! I have some leftover pumpkin puree in the fridge and was wondering what to do with it. This is perfect as I have some leftover molasses as well! Thanks for sharing, I'm going to make this today or tomorrow! :)
