Pumpkin Bread

This is one of my earliest experiences of asking people for recipes. My mom's visiting teacher made this yummy bread for her when I was a teenager.

1 1/2 cup sugar
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 2/3 cup flour
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp cloves (I like less)

Mix well:
2 eggs
1/2 cup oil
1 cup pumpkin

Combine 2 mixtures. Place in greased loaf pan. Bake 1 1/2 hours at 325 degrees. (3 mini-loaves take about 35-40 min).

I'm coming to grips with the idea that my oven might be a little off. I always have to take things out sooner than recipes say to. I need to test this bread after 75 min. in my oven.
