This moist & buttery Pumpkin Pie Spice Sandwich Bread is the perfect bread for sandwiches and makes the most amazing Pumpkin Pie Spice French Toast! 

I love baking with Pumpkin. This is the first time I tried out a recipe for a yeasted Pumpkin Sandwich Bread.

The recipe for this Pumpkin Sandwich Bread actually came to me as it just fell out of the black hole aka. my wallet the other day!  As I find myself making a lot of lunch sandwiches lately I decided to give it a go. While baking I decided to add some Pumpkin Pie Spice to the pumpkin puree and turn it into a Pumpkin Pie Spice Sandwich Bread! The result was absolutely divine – There’s something cozy about its taste and I love the bright orange colour it gets from the pumpkin puree.

I like it best fresh out of the oven with salted butter and jam! Happy Days! But this Pumpkin Pie Spice Sandwich Bread would also make marvelous turkey sandwiches – paired with a teaspoon of cranberry jelly. Think the day after Thanksgiving. Because of the bright golden color it also looks super festive on the holiday table!

We used our leftover slices to make French Toast on Sunday morning! I´d recommend you do the same!

Smothered with Maple Syrup – I`m pretty sure I heard my husband say that was the best French Toast EVER!

I think from now on I´ll just store some pre-cut slices of Pumpkin Pie Spice Sanwich Bread in my freezer for French Toast purposes only!
