Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

At the request of a coworker (and by request I mean he brought in cans of pumpkin puree), I finally made a pumpkin classic — Pumpkin Bread. Although usually made with walnuts or pecans, I instead decided to use chocolate chips. I used a recipe from Cooking Lightas a base for the recipe.

Ingredients:
3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon cloves
2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup egg substitute
1/2 cup canola oil
1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk
2 large eggs
2/3 cup water
1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin
Cooking spray
1/2 cup chocolate chips

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Add the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves to a medium sized bowl.
Combine using a whisk.
Add the sugar, egg substitute, oil, buttermilk, and eggs in a large bowl.
Using a mixer, beat on high until well mixed.
Add 2/3 cup water and the pumpkin puree.
Beat on low until blended.
Add the dry flour mixture to the pumpkin mixture and beat on low until just combined.
Add the chocolate chips. Combine using a spatula. Be sure to not overmix.
Add batter into 2 9×5 inch loaf pans coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool 10 minutes in the pan on a wire rack. Using a knife to loosen the edges, remove from pans and allow to cool completely on a wire rack.

You can either half this recipe, or freeze the extra bread for up to one month. Just tightly wrap it in plastic wrap before putting it in the freezer.

The original recipe topped the bread with pecans or chopped walnuts, feel free to do that as well before baking.

If you think the bread is browning too much on top, cover it with tin foil towards the end (with 10-15 minutes left).

This bread is so so yummy. I love when I can pass off a dessert-like bread for a breakfast also. (Shh.)
I limited a bit of the spices, more so than I usually would, so that the star would be the sweetness from the chocolate chips. Definitely a winner!

    That’s too funny! I bet it would be great with little pepitas sprinkled on top too…

    Oh, FANTASTIC! I remember when you tweeted that the house smelled delicious while it was baking!

    That was hysterical that he brought you a can of pumpkin puree. I guess he can’t be accused of not knowing what he wants, right?!

    Buzzed!
