Equipment

  • 1 mixing bowls
  • 1 whisk
  • 1 measuring cups and spoons
  • 1 loaf pan (9x5 inch)
  • 1 rubber spatula
  • 1 oven mitts
  • 1 cooling rack

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 0.5 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar (for cinnamon swirl)
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon (for cinnamon swirl)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Set aside.
  • In another large bowl, mix the granulated sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • In a small bowl, combine the ¼ cup of granulated sugar and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon for the cinnamon swirl.
  • Pour half of the pumpkin batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the batter.
  • Pour the remaining pumpkin batter on top and sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture. Use a knife to gently swirl the mixture through the batter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate it for longer freshness.
  • For longer storage, wrap the bread tightly in plastic wrap and aluminum foil, and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
