Vegan Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

Super moist, mildly sweet pumpkin bread teased with miniature chocolate chips in every bite!

Pumpkin bread is a wonderful treat for anytime of the year, but when chocolate chips are added to mix, all rich and gooey as each little black-brown morsel melts into spiced maddening crevices, that's another taste bud story altogether.
The enticement of chocolate only elevates this yummy treat higher onto the dessert scale.
Without applesauce or mashed ripened bananas included in this particular recipe, it's the pumpkin puree that makes for a moist, sumptuous bread- no butter or oil necessary.
A rather enjoyable and lovely accompaniment to hot tea or a mug of plain almond milk, a slice or two of chocolate chip pumpkin bread amongst friends (especially kitty cats and books) is equivalent to the wonders of bliss induced heaven.
Just perfect.
