Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and ground ginger. Set aside.
In a separate medium bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix as this may result in a dense loaf.
Fold in the grated carrots and raisins until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, using a spatula to smooth the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the loaf from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
