I found this recipe in a magazine a looong time ago. Brother Boniface is/was a 90 yeara old monk that still baked every day for the monastery. It is wonderful pumpkin bread! Ingredients:
4 cups all-purpose flour |
3 cups sugar |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice |
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves |
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger |
4 large eggs |
1 cup vegetable oil |
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin |
2/3 cup water |
1 cup chopped pecans or 1 cup walnuts |
Directions:
1. Beat all ingredients (except nuts) with electric mixer just until dry ingredients are moistened. Fold in nuts. 2. Spoon into two greased and floured 9 x 5 inch loaf pans. 3. Bake at 350 degrees for one hour or until pick inserted in center comes out clean. 4. Cool in pans on wire racks for 10 minutes; removed from pans and cool completely on racks. |
