Vegan Pumpkin Bread

Fall is upon us so that means bring me EVERYTHING pumpkin. I am a sucker for the fall season just like any other basic B*tch. When NYC has its first day in September below 70 degrees I immediately get the craving.

I have never made pumpkin bread before, let alone vegan pumpkin bread so this took me a couple of trys to get right. The first two batches I made came out a complete mush pile. I was beginning to think what the HECK, and I GIVE UP! Baking is really great for me though, it tests my patience, but it also pushes me to try harder. I took a step back, and woke up yesterday morning and tried again. This time I was careful about how much wet ingredients I put in and added some more dry ingredients since pumpkin puree is super mushy.

I am thrilled that I now have this yummy treat for the afternoon this weekend with a hot cup of tea. Its the perfect weather to sit out on my balcony with a good book and enjoy this recipe.
