There are several problems with this recipe. First, the volume of batter easily filled 3 loaf pans, not 2. Second, the baking time is listed as 50 minutes but after 50 minutes the centers were still liquid. It took over an hour and a half to bake the 3 loaves and I know my oven works fine because I never have problems baking other dishes. Finally, it is way too sweet and dense, very much like a brick of sugar. I realize this may be a taste preference issue, but there's no getting around the first two problems.

the recipe makes a great tasting bread, but the timing is way off. It says it makes two loaves when it can actually make 3-4. It took almost 2 hours of baking time, probably because of having to check it all the time.

I made several loaves for the family Thanksgiving Breakfast and it went fast. Everyone seems to like it.

I made this a little healthier and it still came out delicious. Like others suggested, I used half the amount of sugar, and half of the cranberries. I used half whole wheat flour, and apple butter for the half of the oil. I thought it was perfect--not too sweet but sweet enough to balance the tart cranberries. I will make this again.

I have not ventured into the world of cooking and baking that much. I probably would be considered an idiot in the kitchen! I saw this easy recipe online. I decided it sounded like an interesting thing to make and take to Thanksgiving Dinner with my grandparents to say I did something. Everyone in my family who has tried it so far loves it. One loaf to eat now, the other to freeze for Thursday. I baked it for about 1 hour and 20 minutes. I used 2 cupas of sugar, next time I'll try 3,4 sounded like too much. I used 3 cups of cranberries. It was so delicious. People have heard cranberry and pumpkin and have not heard of the combo, but my family loved it. Make this now!

This bread is wonderful. I made 40 loaves of it last year to give as gifts and have received requests this year to receive it again.

I found that there in too much oil in the bread, and the pumpkin flavor is not as pronounced as I would like it and it lacks an interesting taste. It was easy, though.

I also added about 2 C of chopped walnuts and this recipe made 8 mini-laves to give to friends. Everyone LOVED it and asked when I was going to make it again. The sweet & tart cranberries make this a special pumpkin bread--try it!
