📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and ground cloves.

3. In another bowl, beat the eggs. Add the mashed banana, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Do not overmix.

5. Fold in the chocolate chips gently with a spatula.

6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

7. Bake in the preheated oven for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached.

8. 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.

9. Serve the bread warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days, or freeze for longer storage.
