PUMPKIN PULL APART BREAD
You guys…my book went on sale today!!
YES! My pumpkin cookbook is now on sale. This is so surreal just holding it in my hands and watching people looking through it with amazement. I have the biggest smile on my face, seeing my family be so proud of me. I’m very excited to announce this to all of you, my readers, and I’m very nervous as well. It’s like being on display and waiting to hear everyone’s opinions. Eek! I hope you like it!
I was very happy working on this book because I absolutely adore pumpkin and I’ve loved it ever since I was a kid. My grandmother used to grow pumpkins and I remember helping her in the garden. Although, my favorite part was harvest time and eating time of course. She used to make many different things with pumpkin and she always got me to try it.
To celebrate release of my book, I made us some quick pumpkin pull apart bread. It’s quick and easy to make and you won’t be able to stay away from this delicious treat. Just get some pre-made pizza dough from the deli section of your grocery store and you will be ready to go. This bread will be perfect with morning cup of tea on a lazy weekend morning or as a snack for kids coming back from school.

Notes

Sindy says
Can you assemble the pull apart pumpkin bread a day or two before baking? I’m trying to get a head start before baking this on Thanksgiving.

Hi Sindy!
I can’t imagine why not. Just make sure to cover it with saran wrap before refrigerating. You might need to bake extra 5 or so minutes since it will be cold. If the top is browning too fast while baking, loosely cover it with foil.
Happy Thanksgiving!

I, too, stacked the pieces the wrong way. It was my fault. Had I looked closer at the photo, I would have realized. The finished product wasn’t as pretty as the photos you posted, but it still tasted delicious!

Hi Jodi!
I’m so glad that you liked the taste! After all, that’s what matters more than the look 🙂 I hope you’ll make it some more!
