Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ¾ cups (220g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • ½ cup (100g) light brown sugar, packed
  • ¾ cup (180g) pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • ½ cup (120ml) vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup (125g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ⅓ cup (40g) all-purpose flour (for streusel)
  • ⅓ cup (70g) light brown sugar (for streusel)
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon (for streusel)
  • 3 tablespoons (45g) unsalted butter, cold and diced (for streusel)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon for the streusel. Add the cold, diced butter and use a pastry cutter or fork to mix until crumbly. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  4. In another bowl, whisk the granulated sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
  7. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top starts to brown too quickly, tent it with aluminum foil.
  9. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a cooling rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

Use room-temperature eggs for smoother batter. Don’t overmix to keep the bread tender. Customize the streusel with nuts or sea salt for extra crunch.
