I wanted to bake something with Bella that I could pack as a little treat in her lunchbox, and this seemed perfect. Actually, it WAS perfect. She couldn't get enough of it.
I would have thrown some nuts in, but her classroom is nut free. Next time, I'm definitely adding walnuts and keeping the bread all to ourselves here at home.
It just so happens that our What's Baking? hostess for September, Jenna (author of Jenna's Cooking Journey) asked us to back a quickbread this month. Looks like I killed two birds with one stone :)
Dare I say - welcome, fall!
Easy Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread
from King Arthur Flour
1 cup vegetable oil
2 2/3 cups sugar
4 eggs
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling!)
2/3 cup water
3 1/3 cups AP flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease two 9x5 loaf pans.
In a large bowl, beat together oil, sugar, eggs, pumpkin and water. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, nutmeg and vanilla. Stir to combine.
Mix in chips. Divide batter in half if you want one loaf without them, using half the amount.
Spoon batter into prepared pans. Bake for about 70 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out of center clean. Remove from oven and cool on rack.
