2. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, milk, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
3. In a separate bowl, combine flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, and salt.
4. Slowly add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.

Don’t overmix the batter; mix just until everything is combined.
Add-ins like chocolate chips or chopped walnuts are great extras.
