SUCCESS TIP
If your bread machine has a pan capacity of 9 to 12 cups, you will need to decrease the yeast to 1 ¾ teaspoons for the 1 ½-pound loaf, so the bread won't touch the lid of the bread machine during baking.

SUCCESS TIP
We found from our testing that for good texture and volume, slightly less yeast is needed in the 2-pound loaf than is needed in the 1 1/2-pound loaf.

SUCCESS TIP
Check the label on your can of pumpkin to be sure it is solid-pack pumpkin and that pumpkin is the only ingredient. Canned pumpkin pie filling has other ingredients and seasonings added and is not appropriate for this recipe.

TRY THIS
No pumpkin pie spice on your cupboard shelf? Mix ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground ginger, 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice and 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and you will have a teaspoon of your own pumpkin pie spice..
