Brandied Pumpkin Bread

A wonderful hearty pumpkin bread made in the machine. I make it every Thanksgiving. It’s not like your usual pumpkin breads (sweet breads) made for dessert, it’s more a serve-with-the-meal kind of bread.

Original recipe makes 1 1.5-pound loaf

2 1/4 teaspoons bread machine yeast
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
