Ingredients for Pumpkin Chocolate Bread

• Pumpkin puree-I use pure pumpkin puree without sweetener.

• Sugar-I use granulated sugar.

How to Store Pumpkin Bread

You can keep the pumpkin bread in an airtight container up to 2-3 days at room temperature and up to a week in the fridge.

If you want to freeze this quick bread,  first cover with a plastic film and then with aluminum foil.  Alternatively, you can place it in a freezer bag and take all the air inside. If you choose to freeze, it is better to slice them before so they can thaw quickly when needed.

How to Make Pumpkin Bread

First I mix the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, cloves and salt in a large bowl.  Set aside.

Next, I whisk the egg and sugar in a medium bowl for almost 20-30 seconds until just combined.  

Then I mix in the melted butter, add the pumpkin puree and stir until combined well but I don’t overmix.

I pour the wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix until combined without overmixing. 

Finally, I fold the chocolate chips into the mixture with a spatula.

I pour the mixture into the loaf pan and add some extra chocolate chips on top(optional). Then I bake for almost 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean with few moist crumbs.  

After I remove the pan from the oven, I leave it to cool completely on a wire rack in the pan.  Then I cut with a serrated knife into slices.

Enjoy!
