Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup regular sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 cups canned pumpkin
- 1-1/2 cups canola oil
- 1 3/4 cups (more or less) semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, salt and baking soda. In another bowl, beat the eggs, vanilla, sugars, pumpkin and oil. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in chocolate chips.
- Pour into two greased 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pans. Bake at 350° for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Yield: 2 loaves (16 slices each).
To make these loaves extra fancy, you can top them with a maple glaze once they are cooled:
