Scale
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, and buttermilk. Mix well until you have a smooth batter.
