Pumpkin Loaf by Mel

2 Cups Flour
2tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice ( I always use much more, but I like the
spices a lot)
1/4 tsp Baking Soda
1/4 tsp Ground Cloves
1 Cup Brown Sugar
1/2 Cup Shortening
2 Eggs
1 Cup Pumpkin Puree
1/4 Cup Milk

1. Combine flour, baking powder, salt, spices, baking soda in a bowl

2. In a seperate bowl, mix shortening, brown sugar, mix in eggs,
pumpkin puree, and milk. Mix well

3. Gradually still in flour mixture until just combined.

4. Pour into greased and floured loaf tin.

5. Bake at 350 F oven for 50 - 55 minutes.

I usually make a brown sugar glaze for this (melt butter and stir in
brown sugar, stir over very low heat until sugar is somewhat disolved)
Every time I make this, Sean and Devon eat it in minutes. It freezes
really well, just wrap in parchement, and put in a freezer bag.
