In another large bowl, beat eggs at high speed until thick and yellow, 2-3 minutes. Gradually beat in the sugar until thick and light. At low speed,beat in the oil and pumpkin; blend thoroughly. Gradually stir in the flour mixture until well blended. Divide batter among the eight canning jars, should be slightly less than ½ full.
