Chocolate and pumpkin really go together!
It’s about to be pumpkin everything season so here’s a recipe for a delicious pumpkin bread! It has a lot of ingredients but it’s totally worth it. I love this bread and I’m not even that big on pumpkin. Enjoy!
Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees.
2 sticks soft salted butter
1 1/3 cups brown sugar
1/3 cup canned pumpkin
4 eggs
1/3 cup sour cream
1/3 cup molasses
3 tbsp finely grated fresh ginger
1 tbsp lemon zest
1 tsp good vanilla
2 1/8 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
½ tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp ground cloves
In a smaller bowl, combine dry ingredients.
With electric mixer cream together sugar and butter. Add in the pumpkin, molasses and all remaining wet ingredients until smooth.
Add in dry ingredients with a few swift strokes of spatula so that batter does not get over mixed. Pour into a greased and buttered loaf pan. Bake slow and low for about 50 minutes depending on oven. But keep checking if it’s ready. Toothpick should come out clean when done.
