Pumpkin Bread with Butterscotch Chips

Pumpkin Bread with Butterscotch Chips

Pumpkin Bread with Butterscotch Chip’s is a fusion of autumn flavors and comforting sweetness. This moist pumpkin bread, with butterscotch chips, strikes a balance between the earthy, fall spices and the rich, creamy sweetness of the chips.  Which by the way is very subtle and doesn’t interfere with the pumpkin spices you expect in Pumpkin Bread.  

Now if you aren’t a fan of butterscotch, you could try other chips like Chocolate, Peanut butter, or Caramel Chips.  But I tell you, This bread is so good by itself without the help of chips.  

For a little added pleasure I drizzled some Carmel sauce over the top.  I’m a big fan of decadence.  I can’t help myself.

Oh, and one other character I should mention in this recipe is the Pumpkin Seeds.  They added a slightly salty crunch to the soft cake-like texture of the bread.  If you were to take them out, I think I would miss them.  

So Pumpkin Bread with Butterscotch Chips.  Whether enjoyed with a cup of steaming coffee, a dollop of whipped cream, or simply on its own, Pumpkin Bread with Butterscotch Chips is a delightful reminder of the joys of fall.

  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 15 Ounce can pumpkin puree (NOT pumpkin pie filling)

  • Add the flour mixture, and whisk in gently until the flour almost disappears. Stir in the butterscotch chips and pumpkin seeds until evenly distributed.
  • Use a spatula to transfer batter into the prepared loaf pan. Tap the pan on the table a few times to bring air bubbles to the surface.

Notes

*Note: I made this with the butterscotch chips and one with the caramel bits. Both are very good but I think I like it with caramel bits better.
Drizzle lightly with caramel sauce when served.(optional)
