Pumpkin Zucchini Bread Recipe

It is Thursday and that means tomorrow is Friday and almost the weekend! This week has dragged a little for me…the colder weather? The darker mornings? Not sure…One thing I do know for sure…this Pumpkin Zucchini Bread I made this week was pretty darn good.

I remember as a child eating a lot of zucchini bread. My Mom’s is the best..hands down.

It was one of my favorite things she made (I have a list of about 100 things that she makes that I LOVE..coffee cake, pasta sauce, meatballs, lasagna, white chicken chili- are you hungry yet?). I think a lot of people have those few dishes that are only perfect when made by their Mom..Her bread was always moist and had just the right amount of zucchini. Perfection. (Mom— I am hoping for some next week when I visit!?). 🙂

A few years ago I started making her zucchini bread recipe, which of course never quite tasted as good as my Mom’s (there’s something about a Mom’s food that is comforting, right??).

Since it is now fall and I had a can of pumpkin sitting in my pantry screaming my name..I decided to try out this pumpkin zucchini bread recipe. I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was (I should have known that adding pumpkin to just about anything is scrumptious)! Since I have been on a whole wheat flour kick I subbed the white flour with whole wheat flour. Worked perfectly. This bread was moist and just plain yummy.

Even the batter for this Pumpkin Zucchini Bread is good (but just a taste of course).

My husband, the taste tester, loved it and so did I. I think you’re going to like it too! This Pumpkin Zucchini Bread would be perfect for a snack, dessert or to bring to a party.
