The Best Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Quick Bread

You may or may not enjoy a nice hayride to a field of pumpkins, where you’ll pick your favorites to take home.

But for this recipe, there’s no need to cook up a pumpkin.

Pop open an easy can o’ pumpkin and let Libby (or in my case, the store brand) do all the work.

Breakfast, Snack, Or Dessert?

Any recipe that’s quick, cheap, and easy, and also something my family will happily devour can be breakfast, snack, or whatever meal I don’t want to cook.

This is the part where the blogger is supposed to tell you all the wonderful things about her recipe, but let’s be honest.

This quick bread speaks for itself. And you aren’t going to read this part anyway!
