I just busted up over it.<BR/><BR/>I'm so glad you did this post! I've been wondering what the difference would be to use fresh pumpkin as opposed to canned in my pumpkin bread recipe. I'm definitely going to give the fresh a try. I was also wondering how it would be if I substituted butternut squash for the pumpkin. Maybe I'll get brave this week and try it.Serenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00959242204818975269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-30937493822550917162009-03-01T23:45:00.000-09:002009-03-01T23:45:00.000-09:00please please do tell your pumpkin bread recipe:)please please do tell your pumpkin bread recipe:)AKkimmiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13305412187583983270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-18829791728617069922009-03-01T22:57:00.000-09:002009-03-01T22:57:00.000-09:00Pumpkins are very popular in this part of the worl...Pumpkins are very popular in this part of the world.

Since then I've seen things where they bake with the same kind (decorative) so it seems you can get away with it. Though I'd imagine if you ever got your hands on a baking pumpkin it would make even that much more difference.Scribbithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03178711182424809035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-5513196770894557502009-03-01T13:13:00.000-09:002009-03-01T13:13:00.000-09:00That video was great and so true.
