I first fell in love with pumpkin bread when my second grade teacher asked us to each bring in one can of pumpkin purée and one empty coffee can. We transformed these into delectable sweet bread that she baked in the coffee cans themselves, which we later decorated to look like turkeys. Since then, I’ve made some version of this recipe every fall. I start by greasing my loaf pans with Chosen Foods 100% Pure Avocado Oil Spray, which is naturally non-stick and doesn't contain propellants. The pumpkin bread is incredibly moist thanks to the pumpkin purée and Chosen Foods 100% Pure Avocado Oil, which is perfect for baking because it contains good fats and has a neutral taste. Plus, each loaf is chock-full of chocolate chips. Have a slice in the morning for breakfast and another in the evening for dessert.
Ingredients
- Chosen Foods 100% Pure Avocado Oil Spray, for greasing the pan
- 3 1/2 cup flour
- 2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 4 eggs
- 3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin purée
- 1 cup Chosen Foods 100% Pure Avocado Oil
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions
- Step 1
Heat oven to 325°F. Lightly grease two 9x5-inch loaf pans with avocado oil spray. Set aside.
- Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat eggs and sugar together until creamy. Add pumpkin, ⅔ cup water, and avocado oil to the bowl of the stand mixer and mix until combined.
- Step 3
Remove bowl from mixer and stir in flour mixture ⅓ at a time using a wooden spoon or spatula until all of the flour mixture is incorporated. (It’s okay if the mixture is still lumpy as long as there is no visible flour remaining.) Fold in chocolate chips. Divide batter between loaf pans, then place in the oven.
- Step 4
Bake loaves for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and cool completely before serving.
