Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
In a mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and black pepper.
In another bowl, beat together granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
