Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/2 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, and eggs until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the pumpkin bread cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding a handful of chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter. To ensure a moist loaf, do not overbake; check for doneness with a wooden skewer. This bread freezes beautifully; wrap tightly in plastic wrap and then foil for up to 3 months.
