I flavored the dough with the pumpkin and added cardamom. I love the warmth of cardamom and it is a great partner with pumpkin. The filling was simple, toasted pecans, sugar and melted butter. The dough is only lightly sweetened so a filling with sugar is perfect for this recipe. The cream cheese icing was really the star of this bread. We love maple. We love bourbon. And the two together with cream cheese and a little sugar is … heavenly.
I quit buying the Tofutti Sour Cream because the ingredient list is crap. I had no idea how easy it is to make vegan sour cream from scratch. Delicious!
You know how some people have a sweet tooth? Well, I’m convinced I have a salt tooth. I have zero willpower when there’s an open bag of pretzels within arm’s reach. Ditto with tortilla chips and popcorn. I go a little weak at the knees in front of a big plate of charcuterie and olives.
