Ingredients
- 1 cup pumpkin purée
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp ground cloves
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
- In another bowl, combine the pumpkin purée, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, oil, and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips gently.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Use dark chocolate chunks for a richer flavor.
- Add nuts like walnuts or pecans for extra texture.
- Substitute half the flour with whole wheat for a healthier option.
- Mini loaves or muffins can be made with reduced baking time.
- Sprinkle coarse sugar on top before baking for a crunchy topping.
