Pumpkin Loaf

I have made a pumpkin chocolate chip loaf, but my friend Elizabeth passed this to me and I thought it looked like a different way to make a pumpkin bread (it uses vanilla pudding). It looked moist and wonderful and it did not disappoint! It makes 2 loaves, so plenty to share! I'll be eating this as a breakfast treat for the next several days. Another wonderful recipe from Elizabeth!!

1 1/4 c. vegetable oil

1 (15 oz) can of pumpkin puree

5 eggs

2 (3 oz) packages of cook and serve vanilla pudding

2 cups flour

2 cups sugar

1 t. cinnamon

1/2 t. salt

1 t. baking soda

Mix dry ingredients in 1 bowl. Mix oil, pumpkin, and eggs in another bowl. Add dry to wet ingredients. Pour into 2 bread pans and bake at 325 for 1 hour and 5 minutes to 1 hour and 15 minutes (mine was perfect right at 1 hour, 10 minutes).
