1/3 cup vegetable oil or mild-flavored olive oil

1 cup chopped walnuts optional
3/4 cup raisins

Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a Circulon loaf pan with butter or oil.
- Stir together flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, cloves and nutmeg in a bowl.
- In a large bowl, whisk pumpkin, sugars, oil and eggs. Stir in flour mixture just until combined. Add walnuts, raisins and ginger.
