1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions

3. In another bowl, mix pumpkin purée, granulated sugar, brown sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
5. Pour batter into prepared pan, smoothing the top evenly.

Notes
Let the bread cool fully before slicing to prevent crumbling.
If the top browns too fast, tent with foil in the last 15 minutes.
Store wrapped at room temp for up to 3 days or freeze for 3 months.
