As soon as the temperature drops and Fall arrives I, too, get the hankering for all things pumpkin spice. Pumpkin muffins, breads, lattes, even pumpkin ravioli. All. of. it.

I find that the fatal flaw with a lot of pumpkin recipes is that they don’t call for the whole can of pumpkin puree, which leaves me with a half-empty can in my fridge. Sometimes I mix it in with my morning yogurt, but more often than not I am just desperate to find a way to avoid wasting it.

ALAS! This Brown Butter Pumpkin Bread recipe uses the WHOLE CAN of pumpkin puree! All that extra pumpkin gives the bread a beautiful, moist crumb. Paired with brown butter and nutty, warm spice, this is the perfect fall bread!
