Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
Whisk all dry ingredients (first eight listed) in a large mixing bowl.
In a stand mixer (or use a hand mixer), blend the eggs and the 1.5 cup of pumpkin puree until smooth.
Add butter, extracts, and sweetener and mix again.
Gradually add dry ingredients, mixing just until combined.
Pour batter into your prepared loaf pan.
Pour batter into a parchment lined 9 by 5 loaf pan.
Top with optional sugar-free chocolate chips or pumpkin seeds, if desired.
Bake 50–60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool 15 minutes, then lift from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
Tip: You can also make these as chocolate pumpkin muffins — just reduce the bake time to about 30–35 minutes.
