I love making this delicious and healthier version of the pumpkin loaf that used to be my go-to treat at Starbucks! It’s super easy to whip up because your blender does most of the hard work, and it’s packed with nourishing ingredients.

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- In your trusty blender or food processor, toss in all the ingredients except the chocolate chips.
- Gently fold in those tasty chocolate chips.
- Pour the mix into a loaf pan lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle some more chocolate chips on top because why not!
