Instructions

  1. Prepare the baking pan
    Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray, then line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to lift the bread out easily.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients
    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
  3. Combine the wet ingredients
    In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully incorporated.
  4. Create the batter
    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together with a rubber spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix - a few small lumps are fine.
  5. Bake the bread
    Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean with just a few moist crumbs.
  6. Cool and serve
    Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then use the parchment paper overhang to lift it out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing. The bread will be fragile while warm.
