4 bananas
1 cup canned pumpkin puree
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup oil
5 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves or to your taste
2 cups chopped pecans or walnuts (I use pecans)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 3 loaf pans and set aside.

Puree the bananas and pumpkin in a blender or a food processor, add eggs and sugar, mixing well, add oil.

Stir in flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves and nuts, mixing just until blended.

Pour into prepared pans and bake for 50 to 60 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Remove from pans onto a wire rack and cool completely.

These can also be made in the mini-loaf pans - just watch the baking time. These make great gifts to give for the holidays.
