Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin puree for the best flavor. You can make your own pumpkin puree by roasting a pumpkin and then pureeing it, or you can buy canned pumpkin puree.
- Be sure to measure your flour correctly. Too much flour will make the bread dry and dense.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bread tough.
- Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool completely before frosting it.
