This is a recipe which I jealously guard close to my heart, and which gained me lots of fame in high school as a baking magician. Only reluctantly am I sharing it now, but the fact that no one reads this blog at all makes it much easier.
If you are concerned about moderation or dieting or anything of the like, read no further. There is nothing healthy about this - but it is delicious beyond belief. TRUST.
Ingredients:
- 3 1/2 cups flour
- 3 cups sugar
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 tsp ground cloves
- 1 tsp ground all spice
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 4 eggs lightly beaten
- 2 cups pumpkin (read: one can of pumpkin pie filling)
- 2/3 cup water
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350F
- Combine all the dry ingredients in one large bowl, mix well
- Combine wet ingredients in a separate bowl, mix well
- Combine wet and dry ingredients in the larger of the two bowls - I always pour wet into dry for whatever reason
- Mix by hand so there aren't any dry spots
- Pour into two greased loaf pans
- Bake for approximately 75 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean - this always takes me longer than 75 minutes but I am always too scatterbrained to figure out precisely how long.
This is a favorite and never lasts long - enjoy. :)
