1 15oz can (I used 2 cups frozen) pumpkin4 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
2/3 cup water
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups sugar
3 1/2 cups flour
2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp cloves
1/2 tsp ginger
(I used cinnamon, nutmeg and cardamom last night)
optional:
1 cup chocolate chips
1 cup walnuts (or pecans)
Combine wet ingredients, combine dry ingredients, combine wet and dry. Easy. Original recipe says to let it bake one hour, but it always takes longer. 350F/175C. Makes three medium loaves.
No quilting news today - trying to finish up the red and yellow strings - hope to have photos soon!

Mmmm - sounds yummy. I'd go for the nuts and maybe even a raisin or two *s*
sounds like a great way to celebrate thanksgiving :-)
Pumpkin bread is one of my favorites! Since it is raining today maybe that would be a good idea!
Happy Canadian thanksgiving! It's time to lobby the government for a three day weekend in every month! Quilters Unite!
I love everything made with pumpkin!
Could eat it all year.
You really wish that you had a food blog, don't you? Love pumpkin bread... you've inspired me to make some, although all the Europeans I serve it to call it cake. Who's to know? :)
OK, I never heard of chocolate chips in pumpkin bread :) but that reminds me, I should make some, as it's one of my favourites... Must start searching for tinned pumpkin - easier these days than 15 years ago when i first moved here.
looks yummy, I will have to try this one, thanks!
umm. sounds so yummy. I especially like pecans with pumpkin. I put them on top of a pumpkin pie before I bake it. Good.
It does sound yummy, I'll print it out for future reference. Can't wait to see your string quilt.
