Ingredients
Scale
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
½ cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 cup pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger.
In a separate bowl, combine the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir just until combined; do not overmix.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Ensure your pumpkin puree is 100% pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling.
For best results, measure flour by weight if possible.
Store leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
This bread freezes well. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and then foil, and freeze for up to 3 months.
