Ingredients
1 cup oil
2/3 cup water
4 eggs
2 cups mashed, cooked and peeled sweet potatoes or (canned) pumpkin
3 1/3 cups flour
1 ½ tsp. salt
2 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. cloves
1 tsp. allspice
2 tsp. soda
1 tsp. cinnamon
3 cups sugar
1 ½ cups raisins (optional)
½ cup chopped nuts
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix oil, water, eggs and pumpkin. Add remaining ingredients. Pour into 2 large, or 3 medium, greased and floured loaf pans. (I also made in it a 9 x 11 pan). Check with a toothpick after 45 minutes - could take up to an hour.
Freezes well.
