Pumpkin loaf

Pumpkin Bread

This recipe was given to me in 1970 by a dear friend who said she had the recipe for years. So I don't know how old this recipe is. All I do know is that this pumpkin loaf is so moist and delicious that all who eat it, want the recipe.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil (really makes the loaf moist)
  • 1 can pumpkin (2 cups or 303 size can)
  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cloves
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Add oil, sugar and pumpkin; stir well
  • Add flour, soda, salt, cinnamon and cloves
  • Mixture will be stiff
  • Pour in greased loaf pan
  • Bake 350 degrees for 1 1/2 hours or until toothpick comes out clean
