Peanut Butter Pumpkin Bread
I am a pumpkin fanatic and so I will use any excuse to incorporate pumpkin into one of my baking recipes. Recently I stopped by my local Starbuck's to pick up a passion iced tea and spied some delicious looking pumpkin bread. Being one to never say no to anything pumpkin I purchased a piece to go with my tea. Needless to say, it was moist and delicious! After savoring my delicious piece of bread I decided that I would try to replicate it at home except that I wanted to change it up a bit, so I added peanut butter. Am I ever glad I did!
