Pumpkin Bread

Submitted by Wife-w-kids

"My grandmother gave me her old cookbook from the 40's and in it are amazing numbers of newspaper clippings. This is a recipe from a newspaper clipping with no idea where or when it was printed. I have used this for over 15 years and have found that nuts, dates, raisins etc can be added at the end for a new taste. Also can use 2 teaspoons "pumpkin Pie seasoning" to replace the cinnamon and nutmeg. A dash of cloves also gives it a touch of difference."
