How To Make pumpkin chocolate chip bread

  • 1
    Mix flours, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a large bowl; set aside. Mix pumpkin, oil, applesauce, and water together in a bowl. (I used a whisk.) Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix them together until the flour is all incorporated.
  • 2
    Don’t over mix. Fold in the chocolate chips. Pour/spoon batter into a lightly greased 9×5 loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 60-70 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the center of the bread is firm and bounces back. Let it cool in the pan for 20-30 minutes, and then transfer it to a wire rack. Cut when fully cooled and serve!
