Instructions
Preheat & Prep
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.
Mix Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, milk, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth.
Combine
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; this helps create a pumpkin bread recipe moist and tender.
Bake
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for about 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool & Serve
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
