I have a small collection of gift-giving cookbooks. Since lots of people like to give homemade gifts I will be posting some recipes from them. This recipe is a different version of pumpkin bread. It comes from a Better Homes and Gardens paperback, Gifts from Your Kitchen, 1976.

1/3 cup shortening
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 cup canned pumpkin

1/2 teaspoons ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
