Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, eggs, brown sugar, granulated sugar, oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined—do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  7. Bake for 55–65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean (a few melted chocolate streaks are okay).
  8. Cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
