I am pretty much waving my fall freak flag now. We've started decorating our house for the new season, and even bought some apple cider the other day. We really hit the ground running, though, when we decided that pumpkin bread was a must make for the weekend.
This pumpkin bread is some of the best I've ever had. It's moist, flavorful, and addictive. Spencer and I have eaten 3 loaves since Friday. So yeah, it's pretty good.
Pumpkin Bread with Chocolate Chips
Makes 2 loaves
1 (15 oz) can pumpkin puree
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 eggs
2 1/2 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon nutmeg
3/4 teaspoon clove
2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray two bread loaf pans with vegetable oil.
Mix flour, soda, salt, nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon together in a large bowl. Stir chocolate chips into the dry mixture. In a separate bowl, stir eggs, oil, sugar and pumpkin together. Fold pumpkin mixture into the dry mixture, and stir until it is well combined.
Scrape batter into the loaf pans, and smooth out the top. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

So glad you're here, Ellen!
DeleteThis looks delicious! Love the addition of chocolate chips...I need to eat this NOW.
ReplyDeleteI always hesitate to admit it this time of year because everyone's so excited, but I've never been a huge fan of pumpkin stuff... but this looks like a recipe that could change my mind. And so easy! I will have to give it a try.
ReplyDelete(Come Thanksgiving though nobody will be able to convince me that pumpkin pie is a good idea - chocolate desserts all the way for me!)
I am the same way. I hate pumpkin pie. But there is something about in bread form.
DeleteYum, I wanna try this!
ReplyDeletetell me how it goes if you do!
DeleteI just made this! SO good! thanks for the recipe :)
ReplyDeleteYAY! That is awesome! I'm so glad it worked out for you, too! The struggle is when you have to share ;)
DeleteHoly cow. I made this last night but used applesauce instead of oil. It is SO GOOD. So good as in I've eaten almost an entire loaf by myself already.
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome! I love using apple sauce as an alternative to oil. Tres healthy! And yeah, it doesn't last long on the counter. It's pretty much breakfast, lunch and dinner as soon as it comes out of the oven. So glad you liked it, and thank you for letting me know that it worked out so well! I love hearing this stuff! Keep it coming!
