Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F and prepare a 9×5-inch loaf pan by either greasing it with cooking spray or lining it with parchment paper.

- In a large bowl, bring together the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, molasses, pumpkin puree, and orange juice. Use a hand mixer on medium-low to ensure all the ingredients are perfectly blended.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Mix on low to medium-low speed just until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Now, it’s time to pour this fragrant, autumnal batter into your prepared loaf pan.
- Bake the bread in your preheated oven for about 80 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the bread comes out with a few crumbs, but no wet batter. It should be a perfect harmony of moist and tender, with the comforting aroma of pumpkin and spices filling your kitchen.
