how many onces does this recipe make? I’d like to make your pumpkin bread recipe but need to know how much I will have left of the pie filling recipe
I’m so sorry for not being specific about that. It makes 20 oz total. I need to go change that recipe. Ugh. I used 20 oz in my mix, but I halved it between the bread and cupcakes. Or you could make two loaves of bread. If you just want one loaf of bread, use 10 oz and half the rest. I will fix.
Thank you SOOOO much for catching that. 😉
