Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the oats, flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Mix until all dry ingredients are well incorporated.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix to avoid a dense loaf.
Fold in the chopped nuts, raisins, or chocolate chips if using, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Slice and serve your pumpkin oatmeal bread as a delicious fall-inspired treat. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
