Ingredients

  • 1 15-oz can Pumpkin Puree
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar
  • 2 cups Sugar
  • 1 cup Butter melted
  • 4 large Eggs
  • 3 ½ cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
  • 2 teaspoons Ground Ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon Ground Cloves

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease two 8" x 4" pans and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, sugar, eggs, and melted butter. Mix well using a rubber spatula.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves and whisk together.
  • Combine the flour mixture with the wet ingredients and stir together with a rubber spatula, mixing just until combined. Divide the batter evenly between your prepared loaf pans.
  • Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 60-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the internal temperature reaches 200 degrees F.
  • Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack for 20 minutes, then gently run a knife around the edges of the bread and tease the bread out of the pan.
  • Allow to cool completely before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
