Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread

It’s definitely pumpkin time!  The grocery stores have started stocking fresh pumpkins and the shelves of canned pumpkin puree are always empty! (Luckily, I got a few cans before it was all gone!)

My first pumpkin recipe of the season is this bright orange pumpkin bread!  When I first saw the picture of this bread on Fever Avenue I loved how truly orange the bread was.  You could really tell it was a pumpkin flavored bread!  And those chocolate chips just looked to gooey and melty and delicious!  Now, the only problem… the recipe on Fever Avenue wasn’t in cups and tsp, it was in grams.  Ugh.

So I set out to convert the recipe to something I could bake with… and I think it’s a success!  The bread is full of pumpkin flavor and when eaten warm…. oh that chocolate gooeyness is TO DIE FOR!
