Pumpkin Nut Bread

*Note I have not tried this one, got it from my mom's recipe drawer.

3 cups sugar
2 cups pumpkin
4 eggs
1 cup oil
2/3 cups water

3-3 1/2 cups flour
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. nutmeg
1 cup nuts

In a large bowl mix the first 5 ingredients thoroughly. Then add all the dry ingredients and mix well, adding the nuts last. Bake in 3 loaf tins lined with wax paper for 1 hour at 300 degrees.

(You can also add dates, raisins, gumdrops or candied fruit to the recipe. It is a very moist loaf and keeps very well.)
