Refrigerator - It is not necessary to refrigerate your pumpkin chocolate chip bread. HIt will last a day or two longer staying in the cooler temperature though.
Freezer - If you are hoping to make a batch of pumpkin bread and then freeze it, let the bread cool on a wire rack. Once it is cooled, wrap the bread in plastic wrap and then again with aluminum foil. Place in an airtight container or in a ziplock bag. Label the container or bag and your bread will last in the freezer for about one year.
