This moist pumpkin chocolate chip bread is the perfect fall treat. Warm spices, rich pumpkin flavor, and sweet chocolate chips come together in a simple quick bread that’s great for breakfast, snacks, or gifting!
Growing up where I did, you learned to love pumpkin recipes from an early age. One of my favorites has always been my pumpkin roll recipe. It’s so yummy! A good chocolate chip pumpkin pie spice bread is another that is high on my list! You just can’t beat a warm piece with butter!
Quick bread recipes are some of my favorite recipes. Aside from this pumpkin chocolate chip bread, I am also obsessed with my chocolate chip bread recipe and my banana nut bread recipe.
There is just nothing like combining warm, homemade bread with sweet and delicious ingredients and I count quick breads as part of that category. Pumpkin though; pumpkin has a special place in my heart and once you taste how amazing this chocolate chip pumpkin bread is; it will for you too.
What are the ingredients for pumpkin chocolate chip bread?
Pumpkin chocolate chip bread is made with a classic pumpkin pie filling flavor. That means your batter will have cinnamon, pumpkin puree, cloves, and nutmeg for spices. Combine that with your typical ingredients like eggs, baking powder, baking soda, salt and all purpose flour for your dry ingredients and you got two loaf pans worth of really tasty goodness.
When it comes to the chocolate chips, you can use whichever you prefer. I personally prefer milk chocolate chips in this but dark chocolate works just as well.
This pumpkin chocolate chip bread should be on every fall baking list. It’s sweet, moist and filled with amazing flavor. It’s so good, you’ll want to eat every crumb!
