Traditional Pumpkin Bread

Ingredients:
3 Cups Sugar
1 Cup Vegetable Oil
3 Eggs
2 Cups Pumpkin Puree (canned or home made)
1 Cup Walnuts (optional)
3 Cup Flour
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/2 teaspoon Baking powder
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
1 teaspoon Cloves
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Nutmeg

Directions:
Mix together oil, sugar and eggs, stir in pumpkin. Sift together dry ingredients in separate bowl and add to wet mixture. Stir in walnuts (optional). Pour into a greased bread pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Test by sticking a toothpick or bamboo skewer in the center of the loaf. If it comes out dry, it's done. Allow to cool and serve slices with butter or honey-butter.
