• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 0.5 cup vegetable oil
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup dried cranberries
• 0.5 cup raisins
• 0.5 cup walnuts (optional, chopped)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vegetable oil. Whisk until smooth.

Step 4

Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the wet mixture and whisk until well incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the dried cranberries, raisins, and walnuts (if using). Ensure they're evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.

Step 9

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then, transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 10

Serve slices plain or with butter and enjoy!
