Prune and Molasses Bread image

This is such a flavorful bread..My family cannot get enough of it. It has the taste of a brown sugar and pumpkin -even though neither of these ingredients are in the bread..I just love the moistness and texture of this bread- I hope you give this recipe a try... Note this recipe will be great substituting pureed fruit,such as-...

This recipe is a dud. I followed the instructions exactly and the bread turned out dry and crumbly.

This bread is really dense and heavy. I think I overmixed the batter.

This bread is way too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of molasses next time.

I'm not sure why this recipe is called prune and molasses bread. It doesn't really taste like either prunes or molasses.

This bread is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their prunes.

I love the addition of walnuts in this bread. They add a nice crunch and nutty flavor.

This bread is a great way to use up leftover prunes. It's also a nice change from the usual banana bread or zucchini bread.

I've made this bread several times and it's always a winner. It's the perfect combination of sweet and tangy.

This bread is so moist and flavorful. The molasses gives it a lovely caramel flavor, and the prunes add a nice chewy texture.

I'm not a huge fan of prunes, but I decided to give this recipe a try anyway. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it! The molasses and walnuts really balance out the prune flavor.

This prune and molasses bread is a delightful treat! The molasses adds a wonderful depth of flavor, and the prunes give it a moist, chewy texture. I also love the addition of walnuts, which add a nice crunch.
