Pumpkin Banana Bread:
I’ve always loved baking bread — especially with yummy mix ins to enjoy! This banana pumpkin bread recipe s not only delicious, it’s versatile.
You can make it with whole wheat, you could add nuts, you could make them with chocolate, with coconut oil or with applesauce. You could also easily turn this into pumpkin and banana muffins!
Sometimes I make this without the glaze (I’ll share that recipe with you in a second) and we smear a slab of butter on. Either way is so delicious.

Our entire family gathers in the kitchen as soon as I’m ready to pull the bread from the oven. My boys always love helping to prepare it and they especially love enjoying the fruits of their labors. They’ve got glasses of milk ready to go when the bread gets on the plate.
I hope you’ll enjoy this truly amazing pumpkin banana bread with your family soon.

Great Recipe! Everyone love it!! Will make again!
I make this as muffins all the time for my toddler. It is one of the only ways I can get some vegetables into him and we both love them.
How long & at what temperature would I use if making muffins? These are two of my favorite things to make. I just made a banana cake with cream cheese frosting that was delicious!! I tried a new recipe that I saw online. It has the texture of banana bread but made in a 9×13 cake pan. I love cooking and baking, but always looking for something new or different. Thanks
The icing looks amazing!
