Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3 1/2 cups (455 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree ((I prefer Libby's))
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 cups (400 grams) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup applesauce (, or 2 pouches)
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (, plus more for tops if desired)

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease 2 8x4-inch loaf pans.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, nutmeg, and ginger.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the pumpkin, eggs, sugar, apple sauce, vanilla, and oil. Slowly add flour mixture to the pumpkin mixture and mix until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
  • Divide the batter between the 2 pans. You can also add a few additional chocolate chips on the top of the batter, if desired.
  • Bake 60 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Let cool in the pan 5 to 10 minutes before removing onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
