Note: I made this for some people at work around the holidays and it was a smash! They couldn't believe it was a Bisquick recipe. (I omitted the raisins)

1/3 c vegetable oil
1 c canned pumpkin
3 eggs
2 1/3 c Bisquick
1 1/4 c sugar
2 t ground cinnamon
1/2 c raisins

1. Heat oven to 350º. Generously grease bottoms only of 2 loaf pans, 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 1/2 inches or 1 loaf pan, 9 x 5 x 3 inches.

2. Stir all ingredients together except raisins in large bowl until well blended. Stir in raisins. Pour into pans.

3. Bake 8-inch loaves 40 to 50 minutes, 9-inch loaf 50 to 60 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean; cool 10 minutes. Loosen sides of loaves from pan; remove from pans to wire rack. Cool completely, about 1 hour, before slicing.
