Cinnamon Roll Pumpkin Bread is a pastry worthy of the name. This delicious quick bread combines two of your very favorites.
Hi. My name is Kristan, and I love Daylight Savings.
Springing forward? Not so much. Having an entire HOUR stolen from you in your SLEEP is so not cool. Who even has time for that? Also? Bedtime drama. Yes, kids… I realize that it is light outside. BUT FOR THE LOVE, IT’S TIME FOR BED. The sun isn’t supposed to be out when it’s nearly 9 p.m. That’s not even a tiny bit okay. I feel like there should be some kind of scientific law about this.
But oh… how I do love a good fall back.
My husband is an outdoorsy kind of a guy, so he hates it. As far as he’s concerned, the more daylight the better. He’s all, “blah blah outside outside outside” and I’m like, “Oh darn…it’s dark out. Guess I’ll just stay inside and read my book. With wine. I mean… “Look! It’s nighttime!!” Amazing. Simply amazing.
The kids never question you about bedtime in the fall. Oh look, it’s been dark for all the hours. Time for bed!! Thank you, precious 5:30 p.m. sunset. You are a mother’s dream.
All this cool, dark weather makes eating sweet, cozy treats seem more acceptable. I mean, we are basically hibernating. And it’s too dark to go outside, so what are we supposed to do but eat? It’s the only logical choice, really.
To help with your fall snacking situation, I whipped up this cozy Cinnamon Roll Pumpkin Bread. It’s a spin on my favorite Pumpkin Bread Recipe, which always gets rave reviews!
This yummy pumpkin bread has a gooey cinnamon-brown sugar filling and a cinnamon-brown sugar crumb topping.
It’s perfect in the afternoon with a cup of tea or coffee or in the evening with a glass of wine. Or bourbon. Whatever, I’m not here to judge your life choices.

- Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter two 9x5x3 inch loaf pans and set aside.
