I always look forward to pumpkin bread at the hint of cooler weather. The smell of it baking makes my entire house smell amazing and like a fairytale when you walk in the front door. And while I love the traditional, classic pumpkin bread my mother made when I was a young girl, I decided I wanted to shake things up just a little bit and deepen the flavor a touch.

That’s when I started thinking about the fancy coffee drinks folks raves over this time of year from famous coffee houses and it hit me.

My pumpkin bread needed – a shot of espresso!

I don’t think I’ll ever go back to the decaf pumpkin bread again. Chocolate Chip Espresso Pumpkin Bread is just too good to miss.

How to Make Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

Chocolate Chip Espresso Pumpkin Bread

This pumpkin bread recipe makes three loaves of pumpkin bread, which is great for making it to enjoy as well as to share or freeze for later.

To make this bread, you’ll simply add all of the ingredients to a large bowl and mix together until well combined. Then, divide among the three loaf pans and bake in the preheated oven until a skewer inserted in the middle of the bread comes out clean, about 50 minutes.

It can’t get much easier than that!

While I love to use homemade pumpkin puree, you can definitely use canned if you prefer.

Here’s the recipe for my jolted up Chocolate Chip Espresso Pumpkin Bread. I hope you love it as much as I do!

  1. This recipe sounds incredible but it isn’t clear if you use a measurement of liquid espresso or espresso powder. A couple of people refer to Robyn’s having answered that question in #21 but there are not 21 posts to read. Can Robyn or someone please answer this question for me, please! I would love to try making this! Thank you.

    1. Chattipati, this recipe uses liquid espresso you have made. You can also use 2/3 cup of strong coffee if you do not have espresso. I hope you enjoy!
