Pumpkin Bread Recipe

Happy Thanksgiving!

Pumpkin Bread

Sift together into a large bowl:

3 ½ cup flour 1 teaspoon cinnamon

2 teaspoons baking soda 1 ½ teaspoons salt

1 teaspoon nutmeg 3 cups sugar

½ teaspoon ginger

(If you want it less sweet with more spice, use 2 cups of sugar and double the nutmeg, ginger, and cinnamon)

Mix in:

4 eggs

1 cup salad oil

2/3 cup water

1 small can pumpkin (2 cups)

(You can also add ½ cup chopped nuts, OR ½ cup chocolate bits.)

Turn into 1 large greased, floured loaf pan or 4 small loaf pans. Don’t fill over ½ full.

Bake at 350 degrees for 1 to 1 ½ hours for large loaves, less for smaller containers.
