Grandma's Pumpkin Cranberry Bread

My grandmother's pumpkin cranberry bread is a big favorite at holiday time. I have modified it to add whole wheat flour, to boost fiber and nutrition. This is a dense, moist, rich bread, and I find that people do not notice the substitution even if they dislike whole wheat flour.It's not the most diet conscious food on earth, but I enjoy it once or twice a year at the holidays, and a serving--half a thick slice--is about 116 calories.It freezes very well when wrapped in aluminum foil and placed in an air-tight plastic bag, for up to three months.The bread is kosher paerve, and could easily be made vegan with egg substitutes. My grandmother uses Energ-G Egg Replacer when making it for my vegan aunt and uncle to good effect.
