This is a family tradition at the Economides home. Every year Annette takes Halloween pumpkins (picked up for free after Halloween), cooks and processes the flesh, then freezes it to be used in December baking. She bakes close to 100 loaves of pumpkin bread (in various sizes) to be distributed to teachers, coaches, mechanics and even the mailman and garbage truck driver. The loaves are inexpensive (about $1 for a large loaf and about 25 cents for a small one). She wraps them in aluminum foil and finishes it off with two pieces of curling ribbon (lately it’s been red and white). This is a popular bread recipe to bake in the Fall when people are putting pumpkin flavor in just about everything from coffee to donuts, to ice cream! Get the Recipe Here Watch The Video Here
