Preheat the oven to 350℉. Spray or line a 9x5 loaf pan.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, baking powder and baking soda. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, add the pumpkin, eggs and brown sugar. Whisk until well combined.
Add in the canola oil, milk and vanilla extract. Whisk until combined.
Pour the flour mixture into the wet mixture and using a spatula, fold gently until almost combined. Add in the chocolate chips and fold until just combined.
Pour the batter into the cake pan and top with addidional chocolate chips if desired. Bake for 45-55 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Allow to cool in the loaf pan for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to fully cool. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months and enjoy!
