WW - Pumpkin Bread

I got this recipe a long time ago from my Weight Watchers class and I finally used it yesterday. I had to bring a "healthy" appetizer and struggled to figure out something to bring until I found this recipe. (Sorry for not having a picture this time, but it looked like a normal loaf of pumpkin bread).

Actual Recipe

1 3/4 c whole wheat flour
1/2 c sugar
1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 c pumpkin
1/2 c apple or orange juice

Mix together all ingredients. Put into a sprayed loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes.

My Version

I used orange juice. And, I doubled it so that I would have a loaf to take to the activity and another one for everyone at home.

Opinions

Husband - He could taste the wheat flour but said it tasted good.
Me - I have a cold and could barely taste the pumpkin, but other than that it tasted very good. Anxious to taste it without having a cold.
My boys - Liked it and ate a few pieces.

The old WW points value was one point per slice (16 slices per loaf). But, I don't know what the new Points Plus Value is.
