pumpkin bread

We love fall & fall means pumpkin bread, pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, apple pie, & carmeled apples - at least to me!This recipe makes two loaves & this is all that's left.

I got this recipe from my sister. It's her mother-in-law's and it's fantastic!

3 cups sugar

4 eggs

1 can pumpkin 15oz.

1 cup oil

3 1/3 cup flour

2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

1 tsp ground cloves

1 tsp nutmeg

1 tsp cinnamon

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease & flour two bread pans- set aside.

Cream together sugar & eggs. Add pumpkin & oil, mix. Add dry ingredients. Don't over or under mix- make sure all the spices are incorporated without beating it to death- you know what I mean.

Divide batter into pans & bake for 1 hour & 10 minutes. Insert toothpick; if clean your done- I usually need to bake another 10 minutes but that just may be my oven.
