A New Pumpkin Bread recipe, and it's a Winner!

Years ago my friend, Barb gave me her recipe for pumpkin bread.  I gave it to my daughter-in-law, Lindsay and it became both of their go-to signature recipe.  I liked it, too, but continued to make mom's pumpkin bread thru the years, memories ya know.

Well, their's a new kid on the block.  Our grandson Ben is visiting it this week, he says it's almost as good as moms, but neither is a good as Starbucks.

This recipe is similar to the one Barb and Lindsay use, but this new recipe has vanilla instant pudding instead of coconut,  and it has more oil, 1-1/3 cup instead of 1 cup.  It also has less cinnamon, only 1 teaspoon but I'm going to bump that to 2 tsp. the next time I make this.

Hubby loves it, because it is so moist it's almost like a custard.  My take on it, I think it's excellent, but I would add extra spices, that's the only change.  Here's the recipe, I got it from Miss Annie's Home and Kitchen.  A great place to visit, the woman has wonderful recipes, or you can follow her on Facebook.

I'm giving you the link to Barb's recipe below, and I need to find mother's as well and post it.

Here is Annie's recipe, with my modifications:

Ingredients

1 1/3 cups vegetable oil

5 eggs

1 16-ounce can pumpkin

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 cups sugar
