Deliciously moist pumpkin bread

The original recipe was moist, but is even better since I started substituting a banana for one of the eggs.  Not the lowest calorie dish ever, but at least it has pumpkin in it as a redeeming factor!

Ingredients:

4 eggs
1 banana, mashed
1 1/4 cups canola oil
15 oz solid packed pumpkin
2 cups flour (whole wheat or regular)
2 1/3 cups sugar
3 oz cook-and-serve vanilla pudding
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt

walnuts (optional)
chocolate or carob chips (optional)


Directions:

1) Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
2) Beat the eggs and add the mashed banana.
3) Add the oil and pumpkin.  Beat until smooth.
4) Add the remaining ingredients.
5) Pour into 2 pre-greased loaf pans.

Bake for  50-55 minutes until a toothpick put in the middle of the bread comes out dry.
