This recipe is a more wholesome version of pumpkin bread, but is still thick, moist, and delicious. The chocolate and pecans add a wonderful flavor!

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
⅓ cup whole wheat flour
¼ cup whole wheat flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
1 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup white sugar
½ cup applesauce
2 eggs
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
⅓ cup toasted chopped pecans
¼ cup mini chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
Combine all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup plus 1/4 cups whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves in a medium bowl.
Mix pumpkin, sugar, applesauce, eggs, and vanilla extract together using an electric mixer in a large bowl until well blended. Add pecans and chocolate chips and mix until evenly distributed. Pour into the prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 50 to 55 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 15 to 20 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Cook's Notes:

Using a 9x5-inch loaf pan makes a 2 1/2-inch tall loaf. Use a slightly smaller loaf pan for a taller loaf; adjust baking time.

To make muffins, pour batter into 12 muffin cups that are greased or lined with baking cups. Bake for about 20 minutes.
