- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, evaporated milk, egg and sugar. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, bran or germ, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and cloves.
- Stir the dry mixture into the wet, and add prunes and walnuts until just combined.
- Pour into the pan and bake 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool 30 minutes.
