I made these mini loaves for the women who hosted my bridal shower in October. This past weekend, I didn't have any chocolate chips in the house, but I had walnuts, so I figured I'd sub the chocolate chips for walnuts, and it tasted great both ways. The original recipe is from Bon Appetit, November 2000.

1 3/4 cups unbleached all purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon baking soda1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup canned pure pumpkin
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup whole milk (i used skim)
3/4 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips or 3/4 cup chopped walnuts
