Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line with parchment paper.

2. Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together banana, pumpkin, eggs, sugars, oil, and vanilla until smooth.

3. Add dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spices.

4. Combine: Add dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just combined. Fold in nuts or chocolate chips if using.

5. Bake: Pour batter into the loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

6. Cool: Let it cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
