Ingredients:

  1. 2 tablespoons - dark molasses
  2. 2 teaspoons - pumpkin pie spice
  3. 3 1/4 cups - all-purpose flour
  4. 2 teaspoons - baking powder
  5. 1 teaspoons - baking soda
  6. 1/2 teaspoons - salt
  7. 1 1/4 cups - chocolate chips (semi-sweet)
  8. 2 tablespoons - orange juice
  9. 1 1/4 cups - powdered sugar
  10. 15 ounces - canned plain pumpkin
  11. 1 1/2 cups - sugar
  12. 1 cups - canola oil
  13. 4 - eggs let sit out for 30 minutes

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour two 8-x-4-inch loaf pans.

In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin, sugar, oil, eggs, molasses and pie spice.

Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together in separate bowl. Add to pumpkin mixture, mixing until just blended. (Hint: If you beat too much, you are developing the gluten in the flour and you'll have tough bread.)

Fold in chocolate chips. Divide evenly in pans.

Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 30 minutes.

Remove from pans and cool completely on racks.

For glaze, mix orange juice and powdered sugar until smooth. Drizzle over your beautiful breads.

Note: I use 1 cup unsweetened applesauce instead of oil. If you drop the chocolate chips down to 3/4 cup (or 1 cup minis), these are 4 PPV per serving. Does not include glaze drizzle.

Makes 24 muffins or 2 loaves.
