Using a mixer blend the oil, two sugars and pumpkin.

Slowly add in the flour mixture and the milk, mixing till everything is incorporated.
Place the hazelnuts in a ziploc bag and lightly beat with a rolling pin to break into pieces.

Sprinkle the bits on top of the bread batter.

Notes

SPICES - I like to add the individual spices and make my own blend but if you prefer, for convenience, you can add 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon of allspice instead of 1 tsp of each specific spice. (3 teaspoons = 1 tablespoon)
