Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread
Description
This bread features oil, sugar, and eggs whisked together until combined and sandy in texture, then pumpkin puree adds moisture and flavor. The dry mixture of flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, baking powder, and salt is gently folded in to maintain a tender crumb. Chocolate chips, tossed with flour to prevent sinking, are folded in last. The batter is divided into two greased and floured loaf pans and baked at 325°F for 40 to 60 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Cooling in the pans briefly before removing prevents breakage. This bread offers a balanced spiced pumpkin flavor offset by chocolate with moistness from the oil and puree.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar

- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
