Ingredients
Scale
Let’s keep it real and straightforward, just like my kitchen always is. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 1 and 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
If you’re missing an ingredient, don’t fret! You can substitute vegetable oil with melted coconut oil or swap the chocolate chips for nuts or dried cranberries for a twist.
Instructions
Preparing this bread is a breeze, just like the recipes I love to share on HomeFoodieRecipes. Let’s get started:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
- In another bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, and water until smooth.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid over-mixing.
- Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Remember, kitchen adventures are all about trial and error. If your bread doesn’t look perfect, that’s okay! It’s the love you put into it that counts.
