Dark Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

Please see my updated Paleo Pumpkin Bread recipe.

This dark chocolate chip pumpkin bread recipe is proof that pumpkin and dark chocolate are a match made in heaven.

If you’re new to the chocolate and pumpkin combination—you’re in for a treat. This dark chocolate chip pumpkin bread recipe is incredibly moist and flavorful, and encases the perfect amount of chocolate in pumpkin and cinnamon goodness. It’s also really hard to screw up, which is definitely important.

While we personally make this dark chocolate chip pumpkin bread regularly in bulk throughout the year for snacks (it’s freezer friendly!), it also serves an incredible holiday breakfast treat that the whole family will love.

Depending on your desires, you can leave out the chocolate chips entirely, and simply add in raisins or cranberries—or leave out the dried fruit all together. You can also swap out the chopped pecans or another nut like chopped walnuts.

This recipe is gluten free, dairy free, and paleo friendly. And no, you won’t be able to tell the difference.
