OK, I cannot keep this to myself. I recently made the most delicious pumpkin bread (I know, I'm already making pumpkin bread), and I swapped out half the flour for this weird ingredient that turned out to be such a smart move...

So, I recently added a half-cup to a batch of pumpkin bread, and wow, wow, wow! It gave the bread the most moist, satisfying texture and the flavor was slightly nutty, but also really buttery and delicious.
