Instructions

step 1.Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Butter a 9×5-inch loaf pan.

Step 2. Whisk flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg together in a bowl.

Step 3. In another bowl, combine pumpkin, white sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, milk, and eggs. Whisk together until smooth.

Step 4. Add the flour mixture, and whisk in gently until the flour almost disappears. Stir in the chocolate chips and pumpkin seeds until evenly distributed.

Step 5. 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.

Step 6. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick or wooden skewer inserted near the center comes out clean, 60 to 70 minutes.

Step 7. Let cool in the pan about 45 minutes; remove to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
