Here is a family recipe that is always good this time of year...It freezes well, and was always requested in the college care packages!

Use golden raisins as this is one of the secrets to this recipe, and don't substitute dark, just because you have them on hand!

Pumpkin Bread
3 eggs
1 LB. solid pack pumpkin (about 1 1/3 C)
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup water
2 1/2 cups sifted all purpose flour
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon soda
1 1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon nutmeg
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
1/2 cup GOLDEN raisins

In large mixing bowl, beat together eggs, pumpkin, oil and water. Sift together flour, sugar, soda, salt and spices and fold into pumpkin mixture, mixing well. Stir in raisins and nuts.

Bake in two greased 9x5x3 loaf pans at 325 for an hour. Reduce oven to 275 and bake for another half an hour or until bread tests done.

Now, I usually make three smaller pans, and bake it for one hour only!
