A deliciously moist pumpkin bread enriched with chocolate chips and a crunchy streusel topping, perfect for brunch or as an afternoon treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup buttermilk (or yogurt)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- Streusel Topping:
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Whisk together the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, buttermilk, and vanilla extract until smooth in a large mixing bowl.
- Combine in a separate bowl the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, spices, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips gently to prevent them from sinking during baking.
- Mix the streusel topping by combining the flour, brown sugar, oats, melted butter, and cinnamon in a small bowl until crumbly.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle the streusel evenly over the top.
- Bake for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
This bread keeps well for up to three days at room temperature. Wrap leftovers tightly to maintain freshness.
