2. In a large bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, room temperature eggs (see note), oil, water and sugar until well blended. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger. Stir the dry ingredients into the pumpkin mixture until just blended (do not over-mix, see note). Pour into prepared pans.

Notes:

1. Room temperature eggs help the batter blend together better. Simply place them in a cup of warm water and they're room temperature in 10-15 minutes.

2. I've also made these in two 9x5 inch loaf pans and adjusted the cooking time by adding 5-10 minutes. Use whatever size pans you have!

3. Really, do not over-mix! This creates dry, tough muffins.
