Pumpkin Bread - Gateau a la citrouille

Traditionnellement, les gateaux a la citrouille sont tres populaires durant la periode de Novembre-Decembre pour Thanksgiving et les fetes de Noel.
Je n'ai pas eu l'occasion de faire cette recette l'annee derniere. Trader Joes vendant encore de la citrouille en boite (la meilleure facon d'obtenir de la citrouille en bouillie sans s'embeter avec une vraie citrouille), je me suis dis que c'etait une bonne occasion d'essayer la recette de ma copine Melissa.

Traditionally, pumpkin bread are very popular during Thanksgiving and Christmas time here in the US. I didn't have the opportunity to try the recipe last year. I saw in Trader Joe some pumpkin cans, and I told myself that this would be a great time to try it.

Voici la recette - merci Melissa pour me l'avoir donnee....
