For an extra layer of flavor, toast the pumpkin seeds lightly before adding them to the batter.
If you don't have pumpkin seeds, chopped walnuts or pecans make a delicious substitute.
Store the cooled bread tightly wrapped at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
This bread also freezes well. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and then foil, and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before slicing and serving.
Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate chips, such as milk chocolate or white chocolate.
