Description

Reminiscent of chocolate cake, this super moist pumpkin bread adds cocoa powder, chocolate chips, and spices to take it over the top!

Ingredients

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup pumpkin
1 cup chocolate chips
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon powdered sugar for dusting

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
2 Combine flour, pumpkin, chocolate chips, cocoa, white sugar, brown sugar, eggs, cinnamon, baking powder, vanilla extract, baking soda, nutmeg, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Blend well. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until top is firm and a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 15 minutes; dust with powdered sugar.
