Ingredients
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp ground nutmeg
¼ tsp ground cloves
¼ tsp ground ginger
¾ cup granulated sugar
½ cup light brown sugar, packed
½ cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 cup canned pumpkin puree
¼ cup milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Optional: additional chocolate chips for topping
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger.
In another large bowl, combine granulated sugar, brown sugar, and oil. Mix until well combined.
Add eggs, pumpkin puree, milk, and vanilla extract to the sugar mixture. Mix until smooth.
Gradually stir in the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle additional chocolate chips on top if desired.
Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Make sure not to overmix the batter to keep the bread tender.
This bread can be frozen for up to 3 months. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and foil.
Let the bread cool completely before slicing to prevent it from crumbling.
