GREAT PUMPKIN BREAD
(makes 3 loaves)
3 cups sugar, granulated
3 1/2 cups flour, all-purpose
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
4 large eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
2 cups pumpkin (cooked)
2/3 cup water
1 1/2 cups walnuts, chopped
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and butter 3 loaf pans.
Sift the dry ingredients together into a large bowl. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the eggs, oil, pumpkin and water. Beat well with an electric mixer. Stir in the walnuts with a wooden spoon. Pour the batter into the loaf pans filling each half to two-thirds full.
Bake for 60-90 minutes. The bread is done when a toothpick in the middle comes out clean. Cool about ten minutes, then loosen the edges of the bread with a knife and turn out to cool on a rack.
