Pumpkin, Pecan, and Chocolate Chip Loaf
Updated September 2026
Chef’s Tips:
* If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice, make your own by combining 3 Tbsp Farm Boy™ Ground Cinnamon, 2 tsp Farm Boy™ Ground Ginger, 1 ½ tsp Farm Boy™ Ground Cloves, 1 tsp Farm Boy™ Ground Allspice, and 2 tsp Farm Boy™ Ground Nutmeg.
* For a more pronounced ginger flavour, add 2 Tbsp chopped Farm Boy™ Crystallized Ginger.
* Instead of nuts and chocolate, you can use pumpkin seeds, raisins, and/or dried cranberries.
