CHOC. CHIP PUMPKIN BREAD✨

INGREDIENTS

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour - divided

1 teaspoon baking soda

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

3/4-1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 eggs

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup light brown sugar

1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup milk

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips - plus more for sprinkling on top of the loaf!

EQUIPMENT

9×5 bread pan

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 350°F. Place oven rack to the middle/lower third of the oven. Spray a 9×5 bread pan with nonstick spray.* Set aside.

In a large bowl whisk 1 ½ cups flour, baking soda, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice and salt together. Set aside.

In medium bowl whisk the eggs, sugar, and brown sugar until combined. Add the pumpkin, oil, vanilla, and milk. Whisk until all ingredients are combined.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir using a rubber spatula.

In small bowl add the remaining ¼ cup flour. Toss in the chocolate chips so that they are covered in the flour.

Add the chocolate chips to the bread batter and stir to combine. Don’t overmix.

Place the batter in the loaf pan. I like to sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top of the batter once in the pan. Bake for 65-75 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. (Mine took about 68 minutes).** Also, if you feel like the top is browning excessively, you can cover the loaf with tin foil to prevent more browning from occurring.
