Recipe: Delicious Pumpkin Loaf

Yields 3 (7x3inch) loaves

Ingredients:
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
3 ½ cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 cup vegetable oil
2/3 cup water
4 eggs
1.5 cups sugar
2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Combine flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger in a mixing bowl. In a separate large mixing bowl, combine the rest of the ingredients until well blended. Add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture and mix well.

In the meantime, lightly grease 3 loaf pans (7 x 3 inch). Pour the pumpkin bread mixture into the loaf pans and bake in the oven for about 50 minutes. If a toothpick inserted into the middle of the loaves comes out clean, the bread is ready.

This recipe can also be used for making pumpkin muffins.
