CHOCOLATE PECAN PUMPKIN BREAD
Every time I make this, it goes so quickly! It's moist, tender, and flavorful. I was surprised how much I like this, and I don't even like chocolate. It can be made into muffins, loaves, or even a Bundt cake.

Steps:
- To make the bread: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Arrange the pecans on a baking sheet in a single layer and toast them in the oven for 7 to 9 minutes, until golden brown and aromatic. Reserve 1/2 cup of the toasted pecans for the topping. Grease two 9x5-inch loaf pans or 36 standard-size muffin cups with butter or cooking spray. Whisk the oil and sugar in a large bowl. Add the eggs, pumpkin, and water and whisk until combined. Stir in the flour, baking soda, spices and salt. Gently stir in 1 cup of pecan pieces. Pour half of the batter into each loaf pan.

Sprinkle the topping liberally over the loaves or the muffins BEFORE baking. Bake the loaves for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Bake the muffins for 30-35 minutes.
Tips:
- Choose the right pumpkin: For the best flavor and texture, use a sugar pumpkin or another variety of pumpkin that is specifically meant for cooking. Avoid using pie pumpkins, as they have a higher water content and will not yield the same results.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in a tough, dense bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the bread is cooked through.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing: This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.
- Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days: You can also freeze the bread for up to 2 months.
Conclusion:
Autumn pumpkin bread with pecans is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for fall. It's moist and flavorful, with a hint of sweetness from the pumpkin and pecans. This bread is also a great way to use up leftover pumpkin puree. So next time you're looking for a tasty and seasonal snack, give this recipe a try.
