@maggiepooh Here's the recipe we have been using for 40 yrs. from the Betty Crocker cookbook.

Pumpkin Nut Bread

2/3 c melted butter

2 2/3 c sugar

4 eggs

1 can pumpkin (1 lb)

2/3 c water

3 1/3 c all purpose flour

2 tsp soda

1 1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp cloves

1 c chopped walnuts

Heat Oven to 350° Bake 70 mins or until toothpick comes out clean

Grease 2 -  9 x 5 x 3 loaf pans or 7 - 5 x 3 x 2 tinfoil pans

In large bowl mix oil & sugar, stir in eggs, pumpkin & water

Blend in flour, soda, salt, baking powder, cinnamon & cloves

Stir in nuts

The original recipe calls for 2/3 cup shortening but I use 2/3 Kerrygold butter
