Pumpkin Bread

3 cups sugar

1 cup vegetable oil

4 eggs

3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour

2 tsp. baking soda

1 1/2 tsp. salt

1 tsp. cinnamon

1 tsp. nutmeg

1 (15oz.) can pumpkin

2/3 cup water

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease loaf pans well. I use 4 small loaf pans, but you can use 2 regular loaf pans.

In mixing bowl beat sugar and oil on medium speed. Add eggs and beat well.

In separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Alternate adding flour and 2/3 cup water to sugar mixture, beating on low speed after each addition. Beat in pumpkin. Spoon batter into prepared loaf pans.

Bake 55-60 minues or until wooden toothpick comes out clean. Cool pans on wire rack for a bit, then remove from pans and finish cooling on wire racks. Wrap up tightly. This bread is better enjoyed the next day; it slices better.
