Low Fat Pumkpin Bread

I'm on Jury Duty this week, friends.  Which means that for the last few days I've ben doing a lot of sitting around, answering the same questions a million different ways.  They (and by they, I mean the lawyers and Judge) have deemed me non-offensive enough that they want me to stay on the jury.  So that's where I'll be for the next week or so.  I think the right thing to do in this circumstance is to make some low a pumpkin bread, because it's 1)does not cntain two sticks of butter like most of my recipes do and 2) it's delicious. And since the weather here has gone cuckoo cold, I think we can at least use it as an excuse to eat seasonally inappropriate quickbreads.  Sound good?

Oh and P.S.  I was asked to make a big ol' cake this week, so get ready!
