Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread



It's time for pumpkin-flavored everything!! I love this time of year, and I'm keeping the tradition of baking pumpkin treats every fall. This is a new recipe I tried this year, and it was super tasty. The original recipe yields two loaves, but one loaf was plenty for my family, so I'm going to share the halved recipe that I used. With a half-recipe, you only use half a can of pumpkin, so I used the other half to make pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. Everything was delicious!

Ingredients
2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg (I had none, so this was omitted. It still tasted great)
1 cup sugar
6 tbsp butter
2 eggs
1/4 cup water
1/2 can of pumpkin
1 cup mini chocolate chips
1 tbsp chopped pecans (also omitted)
1 tsp sugar
