Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder,
baking soda, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. In another large bowl,
whisk the eggs, pumpkin, oil, chocolate and vanilla. Stir into dry
ingredients just until moistened. Fold in chips.

Transfer to three greased 9-in. x 5-in. loaf pans. Bake at 350°
for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center
comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to
wire racks. Wrap and freeze for up to 6 months.
