Pumpkin, Spice and Chocolate Loaf

Preheat oven to 325ºF. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving pretty long flaps on both long sides of the pan.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin, eggs, honey, oil and vanilla.

In a blender, blend the almond flour, baking soda, salt and spices together. You may need to stop the blender and stir a few times with a spoon then blend again. The flour tends to get stuck in the bottom of the blender.

Add the almond mixture to the wet ingredients and mix till well combined, with no visible lumps ( I use my standing mixer for this). Stir in the chocolate chips.

Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan, making the top smooth. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

Makes 1 loaf.
