Pumpkin bread is one of our favorite autumn/winter baked treats. We take simple pumpkin quick bread to a new level of delicious by studding and glazing it with Taza Chocolate. This recipe is gluten free, but if you’re not gluten sensitive feel free to swap the gluten-free flour for plain all-purpose.
