Ingredients:

Preparation:
To start our pumpkin bread recipe, let's first prepare the pumpkin puree. Take a medium pumpkin, cut it in half and remove the seeds. Place the pumpkin halves on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius for about an hour, or until the pumpkin is tender. After roasting, let the pumpkin cool down a bit and then remove the pulp with a spoon. Use a food processor or blender to puree the pulp.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs, vegetable oil, water and sugar until smooth. Add the pumpkin puree and mix well.
In another bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, nutmeg and ground cloves. Add this dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just enough to incorporate everything.
Pour the dough into a greased and floured loaf pan. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius for about an hour, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the bread comes out clean.
