Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

This bread is the fluffiest and most flavorful basic recipe you need for pumpkin bread. Feel free to add in walnuts, seeds or just make it plain. It stands on its own perfectly well, without any added supplements. And it will have your home smelling incredible.

The ingredients here are pretty straight forward of which you most likely own since it is November 1st and pumpkin is running rampant. Any sugar works, any milk works and any neutral oil works (such as coconut oil, olive oil or sunflower oil).

When you’re using regular all purpose flour, you do not want to over mix the batter. If you do, it will produce a chewy consistency that no one wants any part of. PRO TIP: Right before you feel like its completely incorporated, that’s when you fold in the chocolate chips.

This loaf is the iconic breakfast treat with a nice Greek coffee or latte or basic coffee. Or even better, the late afternoon coffee and pumpkin snack bread. The smell of this bread will undoubtedly put a smile on your face for days.
