2 c. granulated sugar
1 c. vegetable oil
3 eggs
1 can pork & beans, drained
2 c. all-purpose flour
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a large bowl, mix sugar, oil, eggs and beans, beating until smooth. In a separate bowl, combine next 4 ingredients. Add to bean mixture, stirring just until combined. Stir in raisins and vanilla. Fill 5 greased and floured 16 ounce cans 2/3 full with batter.

Place cans on a baking sheet and bake 45 to 50 minutes. Cool completely before removing bread from cans. Bread may also be baked in 2 (8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 3/4 inch) loaf pans at 325 degrees for 50 to 55 minutes.
