How to Make Orange Pumpkin Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9x5x3-inch loaf pans.
- In a large bowl, cream together the shortening and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the pumpkin puree.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the water and orange juice, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Stir in the raisins and orange zest.
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the loaves cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing them to a wire rack to cool completely.
