Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease two 8x4-inch loaf pans.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, cloves, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
In a large bowl, beat softened butter and sugar on medium speed until blended. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then mix in the pumpkin.
Gradually mix in the flour mixture on low speed until just combined.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans and smooth the tops.
Bake for 65 to 75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Check for doneness starting at 60 minutes.
Let the loaves cool in the pans for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
