Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour
Total Time 1 hour 10 minutes
Servings: 5 Loaves
Course: Dessert

Ingredients
  

  • 4 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 4 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 1/2 tsp cloves
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 lg can (29oz) Pumpkin NOT pumpkin pie filling
  • 5 eggs
  • 3 1/2 cups sugar
  • 2 cups canola or vegetable oil
  • 2 cups chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and prepare your pans by spraying them with cooking or baking spray. If you're using standard-sized loaf pans, you'll need about 4-5.
  2. In a large bowl, add flour, salt, baking soda and all spices. Whisk together until well combined.
  3. In a standing mixer, mix sugar and oil until combined. Gradually add each egg.
  4. Add pumpkin and mix well. It's ok if it looks like it's not coming together, it will once you add the dry ingredients.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to your mixer bowl. Mix on low until everything is fully incorporated.
  6. Fold in chocolate chips.
  7. Evenly distribute your batter into all prepared pans, filling them 3/4 full.
  8. If using standard-size loaf pans, bake for approximately 1 hour, but cheching at 45 minutes. When an inserted toothpick comes out clean, they're done.

Notes

*Baking times will vary based on different loaf pans you're using. My small ones were done after about 24 minutes. My medium pans are done by about 40 minutes and my standard loaf pans are done after approximately 50 minutes. Just make sure to keep an eye on them and once your inserted toothpick comes out clean, take them out.
