– 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

– 3 large eggs
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 1 cup pumpkin puree
– 1/2 cup vegetable oil
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
1. – Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
2. – In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
3. – In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
4. – Add the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
5. – Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips.
6. – Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
7. – Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
– For a crunchy top, sprinkle the batter with coarse sugar before baking.
– Swap out the chocolate chips for nuts, dried cranberries, or a combination of mix-ins.
– Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
