Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup pure pumpkin puree
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare your oven and pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a standard loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray and lightly dust it with flour to prevent sticking.
  2. Combine dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Set aside to evenly distribute the spices.
  3. Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Add vegetable oil, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth and well combined.
  4. Incorporate dry ingredients into wet: Gradually fold the dry ingredient mixture into the pumpkin batter. Stir gently until just combined to avoid toughening the bread.
  5. Add chocolate chips: Fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter for melty sweet pockets in every slice.
  6. Bake the bread: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Cool and enjoy: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. This resting time deepens flavors and perfects texture.

Notes

  • Use fresh pumpkin puree for extra vibrant flavor, although canned works well too.
  • Don’t overmix the batter to keep the bread tender and light.
  • Start checking for doneness at 50 minutes due to oven variations.
  • Use room temperature eggs and oil for a smoother blend of ingredients.
  • Fold in chocolate chips or nuts gently to evenly distribute without crushing.
