Ingredients
1 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (for topping)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
3. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
4. Gently stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
5. Fold in 3/4 cup of chocolate chips.
6. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips on top.
7. Bake for 55–60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
8. Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy.
Notes
Do not overmix the batter; this keeps the bread soft and fluffy.
Check for doneness using a toothpick—every oven is different.
Store slices in the freezer wrapped individually for easy grab-and-go breakfasts.
