This Pumpkin Cranberry bread recipe was originally made for muffins, but I wanted to make little loaves of bread with it instead. This recipe made 3 little loaves or 12 muffins if you choose to make muffins instead. I decided to make the loaves, because when wrapped up in cellophane, they make a perfect little treat to share with a friend. I love that these are so delicious, but quick and easy to make! They make the perfect fall treat!
