List of Ingredients
3 cups sugar
1 cup salad oil
4 large eggs, beaten
1 (16-ounce) can pumpkin or 2 cups cooked, mashed pumpkin
3 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons salt 2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon allspice
2/3 cup water
1 to 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans (optional)
Recipe
Using an electric mixer, combine sugar, oil, and eggs. Beat until light and fluffy. Stir in the pumpkin. Combine the dry ingredients and stir into the pumpkin mixture. Add the water and the nuts, mixing well. Spoon the batter into 2 well-greased 9x5x3-inch loaf pans. Bake in a 350-degree oven for 65 to 75 minutes.
For extra-special occasions, try this frosted with an orange-cream cheese frosting. Scrumptious!
Orange Cream Cheese Frosting
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup butter, softened 2 cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 tablespoon grated orange rind
Combine cheese and butter in a large mixing bowl. Beat until light and fluffy (an electric mixer on medium is suggested). Add the sugar and beat until well blended. Add the vanilla and the orange rind.
