Gluten Free Pumpkin Pudding Bread

Gluten Free Pumpkin Pudding Bread could also be called the best gluten-free pumpkin bread. It is one of our favorite recipes to make during the fall and holidays.

During the holidays back in 2010, my family missed some of our favorite holiday foods.

I had only been gluten-free for a few months, and I was still trying to figure out this whole new way of eating and baking.

After learning quite a bit about gluten free baking, I started experimenting with favorite holiday foods.

One of the first holiday recipes I converted to gluten-free was this pumpkin pudding bread. We call it the best pumpkin bread.

It is a recipe from an old Taste of Home recipe that I have been making for years, long before going gluten-free, and adapting it to gluten-free.

It was not your average pumpkin bread because it was more like a dessert. I think the gluten free version is as good as the regular version.

I have made the gluten-free pumpkin bread almost every year since adapting it to gluten-free back in 2010.

If you are looking for a pumpkin bread to make this year this is a great one to try.

    Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Cake

    Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Cake is an easy pumpkin dessert made from scratch and gluten free!

    Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Cake

    Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Cake is my new favorite fall dessert. In fact, it is so good that it will be the pumpkin dessert I make for Thanksgiving this year. I love this!

    Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Cake

    There are many variations of pumpkin pie cake available. Most are similar to a pumpkin dump cake, but slightly different in that it has a crust like layer on the top and bottom.

    I don’t mind using an occasional cake mix, but gluten free cake mixes can be expensive and hard to find, so I like to make a homemade version when I can.

    For this recipe, I used the same basic idea I used for my gluten-free dump cake without cake mix, but I changed it up so that it had a cake-like crust both on the top and bottom.

    It turned out so good! It was easy to make and my whole family loved it!

    We can’t have nuts because of my daughter’s nut allergy, but if you can have nuts, I think chopped pecans would be delicious added to the topping.

    If you are looking for a simple gluten-free holiday dessert, this recipe is perfect! I think you will love it!

    Ground Beef Tomato Macaroni Soup

    This week’s Souper Monday recipe is for a simple and inexpensive Ground Beef Tomato Macaroni Soup. It is perfect for fall and winter.

    Ground Beef Tomato Macaroni Soup

    Ground Beef Tomato Macaroni Soup is a basic homemade tomato soup with ground beef and macaroni. It is quick and easy to make using basic pantry ingredients. 

    My husband’s family has a recipe for tomato macaroni soup that they have been making for years. My husband grew up eating it. His parents and grandparents made it all them time. 

    Ground Beef Tomato Macaroni Soup Recipe

    My husband and I ate it during our early years of marriage because it was so inexpensive to eat. I always thought of the recipe as a depression era recipe because it was so basic. In fact, it was almost too basic. 

    Ground Beef Tomato Macaroni Soup Recipe

    My husband would totally disagree with that. He loves it because it is so basic. I, however, have never loved the soup because it felt like it needed something more. It needed more flavor and something to make it more filling. 

    So over the years, I have come up with different versions of a basic tomato soup. I took my husband’s family recipe and turned it into different versions that are more filling and flavorful. 

    This soup is my favorite version. It is a fairly classic tomato soup with ground beef and macaroni added.

    I love this soup during the fall and winter. It is quick and easy to make, using ingredients I almost always have on hand. 

    Ground Beef Tomato Macaroni Soup

    Can it be made gluten free?
