T's Pumpkin Bread

Aunt T's pumpkin bread is yummy and was also my first attempt at baking pumpkin bread. It was as easy to make as it was tasty. I have really gotten into pumpkin flavored treats lately, so it was fun to find out that I was apparently not the only one in the family who liked it. Thanks to Rosanne for emailing me some of Aunt T's recipes!
The recipe says 3 loaf pans, but it made two for me. (I filled my pans halfway.)

PUMPKIN BREAD

3 c. sugar
1 1/2 t. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
3 1/2 c. plain flour
1 tsp. nutmeg
2 tsp. soda
4 well-beaten eggs
1 c. Wesson oil
2/3 c. water
2 c. (or one medium can) pumpkin
Crisco

Sift together sugar, salt, cinnamon, flour, nutmeg and soda. Sift well. Beat eggs, oil, and water well. Mix with dry ingredients. Add pumpkin. Grease three loaf pans with Crisco. Pour in batter evenly. Bake at 350 degrees about 1 hour or until done.
