1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and baking powder.

6. Bake in the preheated oven for 60-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.

7. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
