This Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Loaf is moist and delicious and perfectly sweetened with chocolate chips.
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Loaf is moist and tender pumpkin bread that’s filled with sweet chocolate chips and that delicious pumpkin pie spice!
I am such a sucker for home-made gifts.
It all boils down to my love language.
The more time you spend in the kitchen = the more you love me.
These cute little pumpkin loaves are the perfect way to show your neighbors, teachers, friends, babysitters and anyone-who-surprisingly-drops-by-to-give-you-a-gift, just how much you love them.
How to Make Pumpkin Bread Variations:
- Skip the chocolate chips and add in chopped walnuts or pecans for a more nutty flavor.
- Add a cream cheese filling – combine 1 egg, 4 oz of softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup sugar and 2 tbsp flour until smooth. Layer pumpkin bread, cream cheese filling, then pumpkin bread then bake.
- Top the pumpkin bread with a cinnamon sugar streusel (use the topping from this Pumpkin Crumb Cake recipe).
- Keep it plain and simple and add a homemade tag when gifting.
These bad boys are super moist and packed full of delicious spices and mini chocolate chips. I just love sweet bread loaves for the Holidays, they are so rich and tender. They are lovely for breakfast, snack, or even dessert!Not going to lie, I’ve eaten way too much of this bread. My favorite way to enjoy it is to warm up a slice or two in the toaster oven and then spread butter on top.It’s so YUM!

If I make two loafs, would I bake at 350 degrees for how long?
Thanks
Shawn
Hi Roseanne, I would keep it at 350 and bake for at least 60 minutes, then check for doneness. Enjoy!
Jan
I made this recipe and made one loaf and then made 24 mini muffins. Both were great!! The mini muffins wete extra special and looked as good as they tasted!! This recipe comes together quickly and is very moist!!
Lois Watson
I didn’t see a reply to the question if you make this in regular loaf pans. Would I need to use two loaf pans?

Thank you so much for commenting, it is lovely and really makes my day!
Lisa
How long would you cook this in regular size loaf pans? And would it take 2? thanks
Monique
Hi Looks great, can this recipe be halved or made for muffins instead. Cant wait.
Shawn
Yes, you can definitely make into muffins! I would bake in a 350 degree oven and start at 18 minutes then test for doneness.

I was so excited to find these little pumpkin chocolate chip loaves. I definitely will give them a try. Although it’s the middle of summer right now I know my family will enjoy them. I think these would be great to be given as gifts, but was sadden to read in the description about the creepy wheelchair guy. Many of these wheelchair guys have fought for our country and would be welcoming to receive these treats.
I do want to say I really enjoy your recipes and I know many others in my family do too.

hi i want to know if i cut the sugar by half, will it still work? i would like to try baking it for my mother as she loves pumpkin but she’s a diabetic, so i worried if its too sweet for her.
Shawn
Hi Norma, I am not sure how cutting the sugar by half would work, but you could always try to substitute the sugar for honey? The substitution rule is 3/4 cup of honey for every cup of sugar, reduce all other liquids in the recipe by 1/2, and finally take the temperature down 25 degrees when baking. I hope that helps!
