This is a beloved recipe that we have been making since 1989 when a neighbor made it for us in a Christmas set of cookies and goodies. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. We have slightly decreased the amounts of spices over the years and it is now perfect.
Pumpkin Bread
3 C sugar
1 C Crisco oil
4 eggs
Beat until creamy
Add:
2 tsp salt
½ tsp nutmeg
½ tsp cloves
¾ tsp cinnamon
2 tsp baking soda
1 15 oz can of pumpkin puree
2/3 C hot water
2 tsp lemon extract
Slowly add 3 1/3 C all purpose flour
Bake in 2 or 3 loaves for about an hour or in one large bundt about 65 minutes at 325 degrees.
Careful or you might eat the whole thing...
