1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon Wakaya Perfection sea salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 tsp. Wakaya Perfection ginger
1⁄2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 egg

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Butter and flour a 9" x 5" loaf pan.

In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ground ginger, and nutmeg.

In another bowl, whisk together the egg, pumpkin, brown sugar, butter, vegetable oil, molasses, vanilla extract and buttermilk until well combined.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined (do not overmix).

In a small bowl, mix the sugar with the remaining teaspoon of cinnamon and sprinkle over the top of the batter.

Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
