Author: adapted from Wende and Harry Devlin, Old Witch and the Polka Dot Ribbon
- 3 eggs
- 1 15-ounce can pumpkin
- ¾ cup vegetable oil
- ½ cup water
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2¼ cups sugar
- 1½ tsp baking soda
- 1¼ tsp salt
- ¾ tsp nutmeg
- ¾ tsp cinnamon
- 1 cup golden raisins
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil two loaf pans and set aside.
- Beat together wet ingredients in a bowl. In a second bowl, mix together dry ingredients. Combine the two mixtures, then mix in raisins and nuts.
- Pour batter into loaf pans, and bake for an hour to an hour and fifteen minutes. Cake is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let loaves cool for 15-20 minutes in the pans, then remove and finish cooling on a rack.
- If desired, top with your favorite cream cheese frosting and additional chopped walnuts.
