Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, and pure vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chunks evenly throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy the delightful blend of pumpkin spice and chocolate!
