Ingredients
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup shortening, plus more for greasing
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips , divided
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x5 loaf pan liberally with shortening. This is optional, but for even easier removal, line the bottom with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the shortening and sugar until light and fluffy, approximately 2 minutes. Add the eggs, pumpkin puree and vanilla, blending until fully combined.
- In a separate bowl sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the dry ingredient to the wet ingredients until just combined. Do not over mix.
- By hand, fold in 3/4 of of the mini chocolate morsels with a spatula.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared bread pan. Top with the remaining 1/4 of the mini chocolate chips.
- Bake for 50 minutes or until top is lightly brown and it passes the toothpick test. If the top starts to brown too fast, loosely cover with a leaf of aluminum foil.
- Cool the bread for 15-20 minutes and then remove from pan by gently turning upside down.
- East immediately or let fully cool, wrap well and freeze.
