Aimee's Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread


It's finally chilly outside- perfect weather for pumpkin bread. I once again tweaked the recipe so I can devour even more!

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Ingredients

5 eggs
3 cups sugar - I used 2 1/2 cups
2 1/2 cups pumpkin
2 cups oil - I used 1 1/2 cups I'll experiment with even less, later..
4 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. soda
4 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 1/2 t nutmeg
1 1/2 t ground cloves
1 tsp. ginger
1 1/4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup pecans - optional

Grease 3 - 8" bread pans.
In large bowl cream eggs and sugar. Add oil and pumpkin until combined.
In a med. bowl whisk together dry ingredients. Add to creamed mixture until combined and fold in the choco chips.
Bake for 50 - 60 minutes.
