Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ginger
  • 1 teaspoon cloves
  • 1 teaspoon nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • ½ cup light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 15 ounces pumpkin purée
I always use Kosher salt in my kitchen! If using table salt, start with half the amount and adjust to taste, as it is much "saltier" by volume.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat an oven to 325°F and lightly grease and line two 8x4 loaf pans with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, cloves and nutmeg.  Whisk until fully combined.  Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, combine both sugars and melted butter.  Whisk until fully combined.  Add in the eggs and vanilla extract and whisk together.
  • Add in the pumpkin purée and mix until fully combined.  Now add in the flour mixture and stir until fully combined.
  • Equally divide the batter between the two pans, smooth out and bake for 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.  Enjoy!
