Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 15-ounce can of pumpkin puree
  • 1 box Simple Mills Pumpkin Muffin Mix
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice

Optional add-ons

  • 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, plus more to garnish - or dark chocolate
  • 1/3 cup pepitas for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Line an 8x4-inch loaf pan with parchment paper (or grease well with butter and/or nonstick cooking spray).
  • To a large mixing bowl whisk to combine 3 eggs and canned pumpkin puree. Stir in Simple Mills Pumpkin Muffin Mix and pumpkin pie spice; stir to combine. Fold in chocolate chips, if using.
  • Pour batter into your parchment lined loaf pan. Top with extra chocolate chips and pumpkin seeds, if using.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, and then loosely cover with foil for 10-15 more minutes until bread is done (you can test this by inserting a toothpick and if it comes out clean, it's done).
  • Remove from oven and allow it to cool for 30-45 minutes before slicing.

Notes

Storage & Freezing: Let the pumpkin bread cool completely before storing.
  • Room temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
  • Refrigerator: Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. This is my preferred method since the pumpkin puree makes this bread extra moist.
  • Freezer: Wrap individual slices tightly in plastic wrap and freeze in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator or warm a slice in the microwave for 10–15 seconds.
