Ingredients
  

For the Bread
  • 1/2 cup Vegan Butter Provides richness and moisture; substitute with coconut oil or another vegan margarine.
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Essential for structure; can be replaced with a gluten-free flour blend if needed.
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar Adds sweetness and moisture for a deep flavor; regular granulated sugar can be used as a substitute.
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar Balances sweetness; can be omitted if desired.
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon Adds warmth and sweetness; other spices like nutmeg can be used if preferred.
  • 1 cup Pumpkin Puree The star ingredient that gives moisture and pumpkin flavor; canned or homemade can be used.
  • 1/3 cup Oil Provides moisture and richness; use a neutral oil like canola or vegetable oil.
  • 1/2 cup Maple Syrup Adds natural sweetness and flavor depth; honey can be used for non-vegan versions.
  • 1 teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice For a spiced flavor; can substitute with a mix of cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.

  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda Leavening agents essential for rising.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt Enhances overall flavor; do not omit.

For the Streusel Topping
  • 1/4 cup Vegan Butter Use softened vegan butter for a crumbly topping; keep it chilled until ready to use.
  • 1/2 cup All-Purpose Flour Same as for the bread; ensures a lovely crunch when baked.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with vegan butter, lining it with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix softened vegan butter, flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon until crumbly. Chill the streusel.
  3. In a large bowl, combine pumpkin puree, oil, brown sugar, and maple syrup, whisking until smooth.
  4. Sift in flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into the wet mixture. Fold in the dry ingredients gently, then add chocolate chips.
  5. Pour the batter into the pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle the chilled streusel over the batter and press lightly.
  6. Bake for 55-60 minutes until the top is dark brown and a toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then remove using parchment overhang and cool completely on a wire rack.
