When I do remember about the pumpkin, I end up making cookies or muffins.
Recently I decided to make pumpkin bread.
Since the original recipe made two loaves and I only had one loaf pan, I ended up baking one loaf and a pan. I guess you could consider the pan version a cake!
Either way, the bread (cake) came out moist and fluffy. Perfect for a snack, dessert, or even breakfast!
