There's nothing like a slice of rich and moist pumpkin loaf. This recipe for pumpkin loaf makes two good-sized loves: one for eating and one for freezing!

Pumpkin Loaf Recipe

  • 3 cups sugar
  • 1 cup oil
  • 2 cups pumpkin
  • 3 eggs

Combine oil, sugar and eggs in a large bowl. Stir in pumpkin and blend ingredients.

Add:

  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. ground cloves
  • 1 tsp. nutmeg
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon

Stir into wet ingredients.

  • Add 3 cups of flour and stir with a wooden spoon until well blended.
  • Add 1 cup chopped walnuts.

Grease and flour pans.

Place mixture into 2 large loaf pans or 3 smaller loaf pans.

Bake pumpkin loaves for 1/2 hour at 350 degrees. Reduce heat and continue baking until centers are cooked. Cool in pan before removing.

Quite a nice loaf and easy to make!

One could cut back on the sugar a little.

I added some raisins to the recipe which was very nice.
