Notes

Nutrition information is estimated using a database this owner is not responsible for maintaining. Exact nutrition information will depend on the actual ingredients and amounts used when making this recipe. And remember, there is so much more to food than what you will find on a Nutrition Facts Label :)

Use the 'scoop and sweep' method for measuring flour for this recipe. Do not use a packed cup of flour. Use a spoon to put flour in a measuring cup then level it off with the flat end of a knife.
Chocolate chips can be left out or replaced with raisins or walnuts.
Let the pumpkin bread cool completely before serving.
