Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix 1 cup of the flour, the brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, nutmeg, and ground cloves or ginger in a large bowl.
Add pumpkin, milk, eggs, and vegetable oil and stir until well combined, at least 2 minutes.
Add the remaining 1 cup of flour and stir until batter is smooth.
Grease a 9x5x3 inch loaf pan, and pour in batter. Bake for 60 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
