Pour the batter into the loaf pans filling each half to two-thirds full.
Bake for 60-90 minutes for large pans, 30-45 minutes for small ones. Pumpkin-Nut bread is done when a toothpick in the middle comes out clean.
Cool in the pan for ten minutes, then loosen the edges of the bread with a knife and turn out to cool on a rack.
