Ingredients

• 2 cups canned pumpkin
• 3 cups sugar
• 1 cup water
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 4 eggs
• 3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tsp. baking soda
• 2 tsp. cinnamon
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 tsp. baking powder
• 1/2 tsp. nutmeg

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 350 deg. In a large mixing bowl, combine pumpkin, sugar, water, vegetable oil and eggs. Beat until well mixed. Measure the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, nutmeg,and cloves into a separate bowl and stir until combined.
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture, beating until smooth.
Grease two 9 X 5 inch loaf pans and dust with flour. Evenly divide the batter between the two pans. Bake for 60 to 70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool for 10 to 15 minutes, then remove from pans by inverting onto a rack and tapping the bottoms. Slice and serve plain, buttered, or with cream cheese.

Note: Cream cheese is the only thing to put on this bread because it is so yummy.
