I love any of these kinds of breads.  And with a slightly eleviate cholesterol, I am excited to find this recipe.  I'm not sure if it changes the "counts" but adding shredded zuccini or broccoli and carrots migh tboost the vitamin intake. 

 

All the best, sue

Why in beginning of the article do you state "wondering what to do with leftover pumpkin" and then the recipe calls for canned pumpkin!!!!!??!!!  Very disappointing!

Hi Sandy,

 

You can surely substitute canned pumpkin for the actual pumpkin (you'll just have to soften it either by microwave or by boiling).

I am surprised that a cholesterol web site would have butter in a recipe. Should there be a substitute like apple sauce is used in cake mixes?

The total fat and saturated fat aren't that high, unless the person eats the whole loaf in one day.

I can't read the whole recipe because an ad for penis enlargement is covering part of it.

I despise those pop up ads too. Try using the print option at the top of the recipe header.

I would like to know how this recipe relates to Cholesterol health.

 

Although some carbohydrates are an important part of a healthy diet, I am lead to believed that carbohydrates such as white flour and sugar can increase blood cholesterol.  With 33 grams of carbohydrates per slice , this bread would certain raise blood glucose, to say nothing about cholesterol


High carbs cause more insulin to be produced and insulin and leptin are also big factors in heart disease
