1 c White sugar
1 c Brown sugar
1 1/4 ts Salt
3 ts Baking soda
1 ts Cinnamon
1 ts Nutmeg
1/2 ts Ground cloves
2 tb Molasses; ( I used Dark
-molasses )
1 c Salad oil; ( vegetable )
4 Eggs
2/3 c Water
2 c Pumkin; ( freshly cooked or
-canned )
3 1/2 c Sifted all purpose flour
1 c Chopped nuts; ( walnuts or
-pecans )
1 c Raisins; ( I didn’t use
-these at all )
I used 2 cups Butterscotch chips instead of raisins from my sister Peggy’s
suggestion and it was great that way. Combine all ingredients and mix “
vigorously “.Divide batter into 3( 8 1/2 x
4 1/2 Baby Food Bars greased and floured loaf pans or 2 ( larger loaf
pans ). In a preheated oven, bake at 350 degrees for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or
until toothpick comes out clean when inserted into center of bread. Let
bread cool in pans on wire rack. Freezes beautifully. If you use the
butterscotch chips I let the bread cool in pan about 15 to 20 minutes then
used a knife around the edges of the pan and remove the bread from the pan,
then put bread onto wire racks to cool completely.If you wait to long for
the bread to cool in the pan with the butterscotch chips the bread is very
hard to get out of the pan and the bread will probably stick to the pan and
you just get a mess of bread chunks. I hope this works well for you Cat in
the Hat. My wifes friends at work just loved it. It makes the house smell
great too while your cooking it. :0) !!!
