Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar

3/4 cup vegetable oil

2 large eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9×5-inch loaf pans or line them with parchment paper.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.

3. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

4. Gradually stir dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.

5. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.

6. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

7. Cool in pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

8. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Make sure not to overmix the batter to keep your bread tender.

For added texture, you can fold in chopped walnuts or pecans.

Let the bread cool fully before slicing for cleaner cuts and better flavor.
