Pumpkin Bread

Anything my grandmother baked is worth eating – trust me.  This is great for the holidays.

 

Ingredients:

3 cups sugar

1 cup salad oil (I use regular vegetable oil.  I have no idea what salad oil is, but it’s how the recipe was written).

3 eggs

3 cups flour

½ teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon baking soda

2 cups pumpkin

½ teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon nutmeg

1 teaspoon ground cloves

 

Directions:

Beat oil and sugar until well blended.  Beat in eggs one at a time.

Add pumpkin and blend.

Add sifted dry ingredients and blend.

Pour in a greased / lightly floured tube or bundt pan.

Bake in a preheated 325 degree oven for 1 ½ hours.

Let sit 10 minutes before removing from pan.
