Instructions

Prepare The Oven and Pan

  • Preheat the oven to 160 degrees Celsius or 320 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Grab a 9x5-inch or 8x5-inch loaf pan and grease it with baking spray and line it with parchment paper.

Mix Dry Ingredients

  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg.

Combine Wet Ingredients

  • Grab a large mixing bowl and whisk together vegetable oil, eggs, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and pumpkin puree.
  • Whisk until everything is smooth and well combined.
  • Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and gently mix together using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
  • Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan.

Bake, Cool, and Enjoy!

  • Bake the pumpkin bread in the preheated oven for about 50-55 minutes.
  • Check the bread for doneness at 50 minutes and bake a little longer if a toothpick in the center doesn’t come out clean.
  • Once baked, let the bread cool in the pan for 15 minutes.
  • Carefully lift out the bread using the parchment paper and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Slice the pumpkin bread and enjoy it warm with a little butter or room temperature with your favorite fall drink, or spread some cream cheese and enjoy!
