Ingredients Needed for 3 Ingredient Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread

• Spice Cake Mix– I use Duncan Hines personally because it creates incredibly moist, perfectly spiced results each and every time. Any brand will work though!
• Pumpkin– a 15 ounce can of pumpkin puree is all you’ll need. I love using Libby’s brand, but store brand works too. Needs to be pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
• Chocolate Chips– this is optional, but highly recommended. I use semi-sweet chocolate chips, but any type works great. Cinnamon chips are a great substitute if you can find them.

Variations

• Chopped Nuts- about 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts are a great addition to the batter.
• Raisins- up to 1 cup raisins.
• Mashed Banana- banana can be used in place of the canned pumpkin if allergic or desired.
• Pumpkin Seeds- sprinkle on top of bread for an added crunch.
• Spices- to enhance the Fall flavor, you can add 1 teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice, Nutmeg, Ginger, Cinnamon, and/or cloves. Adjust to taste.
