Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

Another pumpkin recipe…have I overwhelmed anyone yet? I can’t help it – I love baking with pumpkin, and this recipe is no exception. Chocolate chip pumpkin bread…doesn’t it just sound good? I got this recipe from my friend Katie, who makes it every fall. Everywhere she takes it people say how great it is and ask for the recipe. It’s moist and full of great pumpkin flavor, and the chocolate chips add a wonderful chocolately touch, making it taste more like dessert than bread. I love storing it in the refrigerator and eating it cold, but hot out of the oven is great too. I definitely recommend this recipe if you’re looking for a great tried and true pumpkin bread.

  4. When I made pumpkin bread I completely forgot to add chocolate chips – what was I thinking?!?

  5. You are so wise to substitute the applesauce. I keep meaning to do that and forget about it. I should post your recipe in front of me and underline the applesauce.

    While, I am at it, I should make this. Adding chocolate chips is great.

  6. Megan – This was so outrageously good that I've linked to it on my own blog (along w/another one of your recipes). Just wanted to let you know.

  11. Thank you Megan! It's in the oven as I speak. I made a few little changes and welcomed the applesauce part. I always add cloves with the cinnamon and I made some muffins. I live at altitude of 9,000 feet and used half white high altitude flour and half whole wheat Hungarian high altitude flour. I can't wait to start smelling it bake! Thank you again.
