• 1 1/2 c. flour
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1 c. sugar
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 1 c. pumpkin puree
• 1/2 c. vegetable oil
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1/4 c. water
• 1/4 tsp. nutmeg
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp. allspice
• 1/4 tsp. cloves
• 1/2 c. chopped nuts (optional)

Preheat your oven to 350. Sift together the flour, salt, sugar, & baking soda. In a separate bowl, combine the pumpkin, oil, eggs, water, & spices. Pour into the bowl w/ dry ingredients & mix just until all are combined - don't stir too much! Stir in the nuts, if you're using them (I like it better w/o the nuts). Pour into a well-buttered 9x5x3-in. loaf pan, bake 50-60 minutes until done in the middle. Remove from pan, cool on a rack.

Keep wrapped in the refrigerator. Really good w/ cream cheese, or chopped walnuts in cream cheese.
