The Grantham-born forward has yet to make a first-team appearance for Chelsea but came to prominence during a a loan spell at MK Dons where he scored 18 goals.
Last season he was named as the Sky Bet Championship's Player of the Year after scoring 17 times in 38 league matches for Middlesbrough. He faced his new side in last season's Championship play-off final at Wembley.
Speaking to canaries.co.uk about his latest loan move, Bamford said:
"I'm really happy to be here, and the sooner I'm able to get involved the better. That's what I want to do personally, but it's also about helping Norwich to get the points required to stay in the league."
