This is called a bread, but tastes more like a cake. I make this mostly during the holidays. The spices in this cake just lend themselves to eggnog and Christmas smells. Recipe will make: 4 small loaves, or 2 medium loaves, or 1 large loaf, or 1 bundt cak
INGREDIENTS (for 1 servings):
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 3 eggs
- 2 (6 ounce) jars plum baby food
- 2 cups white sugar
- 1 teaspoon red food coloring

- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- 1 cup confectioners' sugar

PREPARATION:
In a large bowl, mix together vegetable oil, white sugar, eggs, baby food, and food coloring.
In separate bowl, mix together flour, cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, baking soda and nuts.

Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 50-60 minutes or until it tests done.
