CHOCO CINNAMON PUMPKIN BREAD

Yup you read it right pumpkin bread!  I have one whole pumpkin bought from the market which is too much for my intention so i have to deal with extra pumpkins. My kids jokingly tease me : "Mommy, halloween is not yet here!" :-D.

Well, i save another quarter for my stir fry menu for the next day, but i am excited what to do with the other quarter, and i don't want to delay its freshness as the pumpkin tastes sooo good!

So here is our new discovery.... YUMMY!
