Fabulous Pumpkin bread.

 As a rule I am not a fan of pumpkin anything and will never ask for it. But a dear friend gave me a small loaf of her pumpkin bread, how could I turn it down. Let me tell you, it is the best pumpkin bread, pumpkin anything, I have ever tasted. Honestly I could not stop eating it so I had to put some in the freezer. Yes, it is that good. She shared the recipe with me and now I'm sharing it with you.

4 eggs

This recipe is an OLD family recipe from a friend.
