Ingredients

Main Ingredients

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 cup canned pumpkin puree
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Topping

3 tablespoons granulated sugar for topping
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon for topping

Instructions

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan with butter, then dust it with flour to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, both sugars, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. Mix until everything is evenly combined.
In another bowl, whisk the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. It's okay to have a few lumps, so don’t overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Spread the batter evenly.
In a small bowl, mix the 3 tablespoons of sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon for the topping. Sprinkle this mixture generously over the top of the batter.

Baking

Bake in your preheated oven for 55-65 minutes. Start checking at 55 minutes by inserting a toothpick into the center of the bread; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Let the bread rest in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Serve warm with a pat of butter, cream cheese, or your favorite spread. Pair it with coffee or tea for a delightful experience. Store in plastic wrap or an airtight container for 2-3 days at room temperature, or freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
