Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to use autumn’s bounty in your baking – pumpkin, squashes and sweet potato make great sweet as well as savoury treats. I always keep lots of muffins, loaf cakes and desserts on hand over the holidays. They make great breakfasts or last minute hostess gifts and it’s always nice to be able to offer visitors a hot cup of tea or coffee and a piece of homemade cake.
Here are some of my favourite recipes for Cakes and Quick Breads for Thanksgiving:
Martha Stewart’s Spicy Pumpkin Bundt Cake
Cranberry or Raisin Sweet Potato Bread

November 27, 2013 at 2:09 amOf course, I want to try all of them. But if I had to pick one, it would be the Buttermilk Pecan Loaf Cake. No, wait. The Pumpkin Gingerbread Muffins. Well, I really can’t choose! I agree with Carole. Your drizzle skills rock!
Thank you for sharing at my potluck this week!
