ingredients
Pumpkin Batter:
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup brown sugar or coconut sugar
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup avocado oil or melted coconut oil
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (a mix of semi-sweet and dark)
ingredients
Chocolate Batter:
- Half of the original pumpkin batter mixture
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons milk of choice
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350F. Lightly grease and line a standard loaf pan with parchment paper; set aside.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together brown or coconut sugar, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, egg, vanilla, and avocado or melted coconut oil until smooth.
Step 3
Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt to the wet ingredient mixture. Use a wooden spoon or spatula to mix until combined and smooth.
Step 4
Transfer about half of the batter to a separate medium bowl to use for the chocolate batter. Add cocoa powder and milk, and mix until smooth. Fold in 1/4 cup of chocolate chips.
Step 5
Add alternating scoops of pumpkin and chocolate batter to the prepared loaf pan (I recommend doing this in two rounds). Use a butter knife to run through and gently swirl around the batter to create a marbled effect.
Step 6
Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips all over the top of the batter.
Step 7
Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then transfer the loaf from the pan to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Slice and serve.
