Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon cloves

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs until smooth.
- Stir in the vegetable oil and vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, spices, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Don’t overmix; a few lumps are okay!
