Banana Pumpkin Bread

Pumpkin, banana, pumpkin, banana. Which should I do? How about both? I have never even heard of pumpkin banana bread. I don’t see how that is possible since I am baking banana things and pumpkin things all the time. I was looking for some pumpkin recipe I think (maybe banana) and saw banana pumpkin bread. I was shocked there was such a thing. I looked at it and we had all the ingredients so I said, ‘I’ll try it’. Sure enough, I was at my little counter the next morning making some bread. And what’s better is the taste is AMAZING!!! (BTW, I doubled this) I want it all the time. I got this from AllRecipes, . Here it is.
