Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread blends smooth pumpkin puree with warm pumpkin pie spices and chocolate chips in a moist quick bread. The batter binds vegetable oil, sugar, eggs, and pumpkin before gentle mixing with flour and leaveners. Baking produces a dense but tender loaf with pockets of melted chocolate chips throughout.
