Y’all the time has come- it’s finally #PumpkinWeek ! I’m sharing my favorite fall flavored bread for gift giving along with a printable recipe.

This bread is made using a Amish Friendship Bread starter. Amish friendship bread is a type of bread or cake made from a sourdough starter that is often shared with friends along with the recipe and instructions for preparing the starter, baking the bread, then sharing with friends. Kind of like a food chain letter!

Ava loves making the bread with me and giving the starter as gifts!

Scroll down to download your printable recipe and instructions for gift giving!

Pumpkin season is here, and we are celebrating our love of pumpkin with #PumpkinWeek hosted by Terri from Love and Confections and Christie from A Kitchen Hoor’s Adventures. All week-long 26 bloggers will be sharing over 80 pumpkin-filled recipes for all your Autumn celebrations, including breakfasts, baked goods, savory pumpkin recipes, desserts, and drinks.

Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Spice Amish Friendship Bread

Ingredients

For the Sourdough Starter:

  • 1/4 cup warm water about 110 degrees
  • 1 package active dry yeast* 2 1/4 teaspoons
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup milk

For Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Amish Bread:

  • 1 Cup Amish Friendship Bread Starter
  • 1 cup oil
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 15 oz can pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips
  • 2 tbsp cinnamon sugar

Instructions

For the Sourdough Starter:

  • Pour the warm water into a small glass bowl.
  • Sprinkle the yeast over the water. Let this stand for 5-8 minutes to allow it to dissolve.
  • In a larger glass bowl (or plastic bowl. Don’t use metal bowls or utensils for sourdough), mix together the flour and sugar with a wooden spoon.
  • Stir in the milk and then the yeast mixture.
  • Cover loosely with plastic wrap and allow it to stand until bubbly.
  • Once the mixture is bubbly, pour it into a gallon-size zippered plastic bag and seal. Do not refrigerate.

For Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Spice Bread:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Combine all ingredients except the last two in a large mixing bowl.
  • Mix well until blended.
  • Finally, add in chocolate chips and stir gently to combine.
  • Spray a large bundt pan with cooking spray.
  • Sprinkle the pan with cinnamon sugar.
  • Pour batter into pan.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes until cooked through.
  • Let cool slightly then invert on a plate or platter.
  • Cool completely and then slice and serve.

Notes

For the sourdough starter don't use metal bowls or utensils. Sourdough is acidic and can dissolve some metals.
I also like to use 1 box of pudding mix in place of canned pumpkin. Pumpkin Spice pudding is delicious as is vanilla. 

 

This recipe calls for 1 cup of Amish friendship bread starter.

If you do not have any you can make your own.

1/4 cup warm water about 110 degrees
1 package active dry yeast* (2 1/4 teaspoons)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup milk 

I use one whole can of pumpkin puree for this bread.

I also like to use 1 box of pudding mix in place of pumpkin for a different flavor.

Pumpkin spice pudding is delicious as is vanilla. 

Add 1 cup of Amish friendship bread starter in a large mixing bowl then add remaining ingredients.

 

Mix well until combined.

Finally, add in chocolate chips and stir gently to combine.

Spray a large bundt pan with cooking spray then sprinkle the pan with cinnamon sugar.

Pour batter into pan.

Bake for 50-60 minutes at 325 degrees until cooked through.

Let cool slightly.

Invert on to a plate or platter.

Cool completely and then slice and serve.

You can also make these into muffins! Bake at 325 degrees for 35 minutes.
