Moist Pumpkin Bread Recipe by Reis
It’s that time of the year where Orange is in the air. Every year we carve our pumpkins and wonder what to do with the inside. This year, Reis found a recipe and surprised the family by making Moist Pumpkin Bread. Like his mom, Reis has a hard time following recipes so of course he had to adapt it. This pumpkin bread was not only moist, it was heavy and oh so good!
This week our host is Pam from The Meltaways and Pam loves October and all things Orange! She challenged the Sunday Supper Team to share their favorite Orange Recipe. Who knew there could be so many amazing orange recipes. Leave it to the Sunday Supper Team to come up with so many delicious Orange options. Can you believe we had close to 60 recipes submitted for this week’s #SundaySupper Event? Pam’s love for spending time Around the Family Table is evident in her posts on her site.
Join us for Orange Autumn Recipes this week and share your favorite #SundaySupper with us during our chat at 7pm eastern time. There’s always room for one more Around the Family Table.

Recipe adapted from Food Network Recipe. We did not use nutmeg or cloves in this recipe because we wanted to make it kid friendly and it sure was.
