Preheat the oven to 350F

Cream butter, and add eggs one at a time.   Add milk and beat.    Add in pumpkin and zucchini.

In separate bowl, mix dry ingredients.  

Add to wet ingredients, being sure not to over mix.

Pour mixture into 2 greased bread pans, or into greased muffin pans.   

Bake  for 45-60 minutes for loaves and 25-35 minutes for muffins (or until toothpick comes out clean.

 

 

*I felt this recipe could use a little extra spices…. maybe a smudge more cloves and cinnamon, but otherwise very tasty.
