Ingredients
  

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon ginger
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Whisk sugar, oil, eggs, pumpkin, and vanilla in a large bowl until smooth.
  2. Sprinkle flour, baking soda, salt, and spices over the wet mixture. Fold with a spatula just until no dry streaks remain.
  3. Pour batter into the pan, smooth the top, and sprinkle with coarse sugar if using.
  4. Bake 55-65 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes in pan, then turn out onto a rack and cool completely before slicing.

Notes

If you only have pumpkin pie spice on hand, use 2 1/2 teaspoons in place of the individual spices. For the most tender crumb, measure the flour by spooning it into the cup and leveling it off rather than scooping.
