Bearfort’s pumpkin nut bread is no doubt an annual favorite.

Sift and set aside

3 1/2 cups flour
2 fingers baking soda
1 finger salt
1 finger cinnamon
1 finger nutmeg

Beat the following mixture well:

1 cup vegetable oil
2/3 cup water
2 cups pumpkin
4 eggs
3 cups sugar
two cups of chopped nuts

Combine the two mixtures and mix

Pour the batter into 2 large greased bread pans. Bake at 350 for one hour or until a toothpick come out clean.

Cautionary Note: Cooking by hand - is just that - cooking by hand. I cook by hand so my recipes are generally a hand of this and a hand of that. A finger is as much of that item that you can hold on top of an outstretched finger. A palm is that which you can hold in the palm of your hand. A hand is that which you can hold on your hand flat with fingers stretched out. - come on folks — work with me here…. set the measuring cup aside, put down the measuring spoons and get cooking.
