Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread

It’s fall and do you know what that means? Pumpkin chocolate chip bread. Fall isn’t fall without it. I have been making this pumpkin chocolate chip bread for years. It is a staple in our home every fall season. As soon as I smell pumpkin bread baking in the oven, I know fall has arrived.

This pumpkin chocolate chip bread makes a great fall snack, dessert, or even a sweet breakfast treat. The spiced bread is moist and dotted with chocolate chips. Cut a thick slice, grab a glass of milk, and enjoy! This recipe makes three large loaves-so be prepared to share. I don’t think your friends and family will complain if you show up on their doorstep with a fresh loaf of pumpkin chocolate chip bread. They will accept it with open arms.

Start the fall season off right by making pumpkin chocolate chip bread. Happy Fall everyone!

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread

Yield: 3 loaves bread

Cook Time: 60 minutes

Ingredients:

3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon ground nutmeg
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
3 cups granulated sugar
1 (15 ounce) can 100% pure pumpkin
1 cup canola oil
2/3 cup water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray three 9x5 inch loaf pans with cooking spray and set aside.

2. In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

3. In a large bowl, combine sugar, pumpkin, canola oil, water, vanilla, and eggs. Mix until smooth.

4. Slowly blend in flour mixture. Fold in chocolate chips. Evenly divide batter between the three loaf pans.

5. Bake for 60 minutes, or until browned and a toothpick comes out clean. Remove loaves from oven and cool in pans on a wire rack for 15 minutes. With a knife, go around the bread and loosen the loaves. Remove from pan and cool completely before slicing.

*Note-this recipe makes a lot of bread, so be prepared to share or put a loaf in the freezer for later.

    Sometimes I swear we are thinking with the same brain LOL i just made some butternut muffins and was going to add chocolate chips, but the batter was more like cake batter so I figured they would sink so I left them out. This looks DELISH!

    You’re so funny w/ your pumpkin recipes. I guess it’s that time of year, huh? This is always a good one to have around. I bought a case of pumpkin puree for fear that I wouldn’t be able to find it anywhere again this year so I have no excuses!

    i made this today with mashed cooked pumpkin, and we loved it! i baked pieces of pumpkin, and mashed them and just estimated how much would have been in a can. it was less dense than canned pumpkin, but worked fine.

    • twopeas replied: — September 29th, 2010 @ 7:39 am

      Glad you liked the recipe with fresh pumpkin. I will have to try it next time. Thanks!

    Thanks for the recipe! My boys LOVED the bread, especially with some cream cheese on it. I’ve also made mini muffins with this recipe. It made a ton, but they are great to take out some for a good breakfast or for a lunch box snack.

      We are glad your boys enjoyed the bread.

    I just made this with applesauce to replace all but 2T of the oil. It is so delicious! I will probably decrease the sugar next time, just for our tastes. Thanks for this wonderful recipe!!!

      I love that you made the bread healthier! I will try that next time!
