Making Kneaders Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread
Deliciously sweet and savory, Kneader's Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread is the perfect treat for any occasion. Using easy-to-find ingredients, this simple recipe allows you to make homemade bread in no time. So grab your mixing bowl and find out how quick and delicious homemade bread can be!
Update: Kneaders no longer adds chocolate chips to their bread like they did years ago--but I still do. To keep it close to the original recipe, just omit the chocolate. Or make one loaf with chocolate and one without. Just to see which one you like the most.
Gather Ingredients: Flour, Baking Powder, Salt, Pumpkin Spice, Butter, Milk and Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread Mix
Before you start, make sure to gather all the necessary ingredients. You will need all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, softened butter, baking soda, eggs, mashed pumpkin, water and semi sweet chocolate chips. When you're done grabbing your ingredients it's time to start baking!
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease an 8x4 inch baking pan
Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F (190 degrees C) and prepare an 8x4 inch baking pan with cooking spray or butter. In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, mix together the wet ingredients. Then add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and blend until everything is evenly combined. Pour the mixture into your prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly using a spatula or spoon. Bake for 55-60 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the loaf comes out clean. Enjoy!

I absolutely LOVE kneaders pumpkin bread. I start to crave it about this time of year. Thanks for the recipe!
Sara
Does this recipe make two or three loaves? You state to pour it into two large bread pans, but at the bottom it says "makes three loaves". Could you clarify
healthydealsnsteals
Oops. Three. I changed that, thanks!!
Brianna
Kind of confused on the amount of pumpkin. It says 1lb, which would be 16 oz, but then says 30 oz in parentheses. Is it 1lb or 30 oz?
healthydealsnsteals
my can of pumpkin says it's 1 lb and 30 oz. At the store they sell a large and small can of pumpkin. It's the large can that you want to use, or two of the small cans. Hope that helps!

Kneaders doesn't make pumpkin chocolate chip bread, just pumpkin bread. But this recipe is delicious!
kate

Which pumpkin do you use the raw pie kind or the other one?
healthydealsnsteals
I use canned pumpkin puree or fresh pumpkin puree. Just make sure that you DO NOT use the pumpkin pie puree. It contains cinnamon and other spices and since they are already accounted for in the recipe, you don't need to use it. It will change the taste of the recipe. And don't use it and then omit the spices. It doesn't taste the same either. Hope this helps!

Kneaders does not put chocolate chips in their pumpkin bread (I wish!!). I used to work there and made the pumpkin bread all the time. While this looks like it would be yummy, this is NOT the Kneaders recipe that they use.
healthydealsnsteals
Ha! Ha! You caught my mistake. Back years ago, (like 10) they did. I worked right across the street from a Kneaders and they made both pumpkin chocolate chip and pumpkin bread. Now they only make the pumpkin bread but still make pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. It could've just been my Kneaders but they DID make it! 🙂 This recipe is the Kneaders pumpkin bread recipe but I chose to add a little chocolate. (Chocolate in my opinion is great with anything). If you want the "true" Kneaders bread, just omit the chocolate chips. But I highly recommend them. Hope this helps!
Tracy
could i use this in muffins instead?
Ross Family
can i use this in muffins? i am looking for something like this for a halloween party
healthydealsnsteals
Sure.
healthydealsnsteals
Yes! I bet they would be delicious!
Pam Tanner
have just mixed mine all up and ready to throw in the oven. Do I need to grease the pans? thanks for sharing!
Pam Tanner
oops sorry I always hate it when people don't read the directions well and ask questions they shouldn't like I just did :0) just saw that I do need to grease my pans!
Tammy
Love this! Mine is baking in the oven right now. I forgot the water... don't know how that happened but I hope it doesn't change it to much. My batter was pretty runny so it should be ok. MY Kneaders does make pumpkin chocolate chip bread... maybe they are still behind the times? Or they just throw some chocolate in for those of us who love it? Thanks for this recipe!
Tammy
I forgot to add, I poured mine into 8 mini loaf pans and cooked about 50 min. (Might make more if you remember the water?)
Arjun Kanuri
Pretty! This was an extremely wonderful article.
Thanks for supplying these details.
Heather Francis
Just put a batch in the oven for our school carnival bake sale tomorrow. Going to take will power not to eat it all before tomorrow 🙂
Lauren
Sounds delicious though I would replace the chocolate chips with raisins or dried cranberries.
Steph
Thanks for the recipe! I highly recommend Guittard brand chocolate chips! All kinds.
Mauri
Is it 375 or 325 for the oven? The article says 375 but the recipe says 325?
burntapple
It's 325. I got that changed. Thanks!
Ann Blazius
do I need.to adjust ingredients or baking time/temperature for baking at 5000ft
burntapple
I am at about the same elevation that you are so I think you will be good with the directions given and not have to adjust anything. Thanks for reaching out! Let me know how it turns out!
