Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk the granulated sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring with a spatula or spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the dried cranberries, raisins, and nuts (if using) to ensure even distribution throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread the top evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.
