This recipe is “quick and easy” because it begins with a boxed pumpkin bread mix. After mixing the batter according to the instructions on the box, you may add anything you like to enhance the batter – nuts, seeds, chocolate or butterscotch chips, cranberries, raisins, etc.
The recipe I used here was from a 2-loaf Libby pumpkin bread boxed mix, but any boxed mix should do just fine. I also used the streusel “recipe idea” on the side of the box, but it is completely optional.
I get so many of my favorite recipes from my dear friend, Lani Freymiller, including this one. She suggested keeping some mixes and the add-ins on hand (Costco often carries the large packs of Krusteaz pumpkin bread mixes in the Fall). You always have a quick and fresh way to make delicious muffins or bread for those spur-of-the-moment guests!
