- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

- 1/2 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
- 1/4 cup milk

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugars, baking soda, salt, and spices.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, pumpkin puree, oil, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gradually add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid over-mixing for a tender crumb.
- Fold in the chocolate chips gently.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.
Notes
- To substitute, use nuts or dried fruits instead of chocolate chips.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4-5 days.
- Freeze portions tightly wrapped for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature.
- Consider adding cream cheese swirl or a brown sugar sprinkle on top.
