Pumpkin Coconut Bread


I found this recipe on www.allrecipes.com. Originally submitted by Donna Abbott
This is a wonderful recipe!! My husband is a huge fan of coconut so when I told him about it - he was thrilled! The bread itself is very dark but I think it's becasue of the brown sugar in the ingredients. I didn't over bake it but it might look that way. It's very moist and chewy too : )

Ingredients:

* 2 cups white sugar
* 1 cup packed brown sugar
* 1 cup vegetable oil
* 4 eggs
* 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
* 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
* 2 teaspoons baking soda
* 2 teaspoons salt
* 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
* 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
* 1 teaspoon ground allspice
* 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
* 2/3 cup water
* 1 cup flaked coconut
* 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
