Pumpkin-Cream-Bread_RESIZED-6

With this fall like weather, I am craving all things FALL. 
(which is really sad because we really had a luke-warm Summer)

But, with the mention of Pumpkin bread, my mouth starts to water!  

Who doesn't like Pumpkin anything?
  
And skinny style at that!  
(less than 200 calories for 1 slice!)

Is it calling your name yet? 


This recipe yields two loaves of delicious bread at 8 slices per loaf.

Enjoy its swirly, creamy goodness!
