Spiced Pumpkin Loaf

This is a special cake recipe by a very dear friend, from Australia. I have tried it and must say that it is very delicious and makes a nice breakfast treat.


Ingredients
180g plain flour
1 tsp soda bicarbonate
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp all spice powder
3/4 cup mashed pumpkin
3/4 cup chinese brown sugar (purchase from medical shop)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup walnut, chopped coarsely
2 large eggs
A pinch of salt

Directions
Mix everything together. Combine well and bake in a greased loaf pan at 175 degree C for 45 mins or until cooked.

Note: Chinese brown sugar is less sweet and gives a nice colour to the batter. You may replace it with brown or castor sugar.
