This Apple Cider Pumpkin Bread is an easy treat will the best flavors of fall. Filled with delicious, warm spices, it’s the best pumpkin loaf recipe!
Yet another year has come and gone where I am ready for the arrival of fall food before the grocery stores are. Up in Ohio, I swear that I was able to get fresh cranberries anytime of the year; however, here I’m scoffed at for wanting to buy them in the beginning of October.
I really wanted to make my Pumpkin Cranberry Bread, as it’s a fall staple in our house, but with no cranberries to be had anywhere in the grocery store until the end of October, I had to come up with a different alternative. I think the pumpkin and apple go so well together (like in my Apple Butter Pumpkin Pie Bars) so why not play off of that and substitute the cranberry and orange juice for apple cider? It worked out beautifully, and I’m so glad that I have another one bowl quick bread to add to my repertoire.
By the way, isn’t the pan totally gorgeous? Be sure to grease and flour it well, and let the bread cool in the pan before trying to remove it. I tried to turn it out fairly soon after being out of the oven on my first love and only the top half came out. I’m sure you all can imagine how pleased I was.

Made this today. It was scrumptious. I did decrease the sugar some and it was still sweet enough. Plan to make it again soon.
