Ingredients
Scale
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
- In another bowl, mix the sugars, eggs, pumpkin puree, and oil until combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.

Notes
Use fresh pumpkin puree for a more intense flavor, but canned works perfectly fine too. Don’t overmix your batter; gentle folding will keep your bread light and fluffy. For an extra treat, add nuts or dried fruit to the mix before baking. Always check your bread a few minutes before the suggested baking time; every oven is a little different!
