I substituted Egg Beaters for the eggs and applesauce for the oil. So they were completely fat-free and delicious! The texture was probably a little different than it would have been if I had made the real recipe. I might add raisins to mine next time to add something else yummy to make up for the lack of oil.

I'll make some of the bread this weekend on a test run and let you know how it goes. And I just noticed that I spelled pumpkin without a "p" in my original post and made applesauce two words. I guess I was spelling it the Southern way:) I have no excuse for the applesauce thing. I also meant to say that I actually love pumpkin pie and would have gladly eaten it at your mom's house during the holidays! So maybe this will be a yummy, healthy substitute for my sweet tooth.

No, it won't be everyone. I'm not ready for that yet. Just a small crowd. I would eat the bread for dessert. I think it's just sweet enough. I'd like to hear how it tastes without eggs and oil -- the applesauce actually sounds good. A fat-free Thanksgiving should be challenging (but more of us should do it)!

Will the whole Mann/Jackson clan be there??? that's very brave of you! Is this pumkin bread sweet enough to be considered a dessert? Do you think it would be okay made with apple sauce instead of oil and egg beaters instead of eggs? I'm on a NO FAT (yes, no fat, not even the "good" kind) diet and am looking for anything to look forward to about Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner. Pregnancy is so much fun:) Wow Nancy!
