In a large bowl, mix together eggs, sugar, oil, pumpkin, buttermilk, and vanilla extract. Mix until evenly combined.Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger.Stir Together: Gently fold the flour mixture into the wet, mixing until just combined. A few lumps are okay, but don’t overmix. Stir in the chocolate chips.Bake and Enjoy! Pour the batter into the prepared pan, then bake for 55-60 minutes. The bread is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
