Ingredients

1 cup vegetable oil
2 2/3 cups sugar
4 eggs
1 (16 oz.) can pumpkin
2/3 cup water
3 1/3 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon cloves
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your favorite Bundt pan well to ensure an easy release.

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, sugar, and eggs until smooth and well combined.

3. Add the pumpkin puree, water, and vanilla extract to the wet mixture and stir until evenly incorporated.

4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice, and ground cloves. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.

5. Gently stir in the chocolate chips, making sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter.

6. Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan, smoothing the top with a spatula for an even bake.

7. Bake for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached. The top should be a rich golden-brown.

8. Once baked, allow the pumpkin bread to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes before carefully inverting it onto a wire rack to finish cooling.

9. Slice and enjoy your Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread warm or at room temperature!
