Equipment

  • Loaf pan

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup butter softened (1 1/2 sticks)
  • 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 15 oz pumpkin puree 1 can OR make your own Instant Pot Pumpkin Puree
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9×5 loaf pan with cooking spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl combine the butter, sugars, eggs, vanilla, pumpkin and sour cream. Using a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or a hand-held mixer, mix on medium speed until creamy and free of lumps.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Mix well. Gradually add to the butter mixture until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly using a spatula. Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving!

Notes

  • To make this loaf a little healthier, substitute wheat flour for all purpose.
  • This recipe would be fun when turned into mini loaves. Note that the baking time will be shorter as they are smaller portions.
  • Roughly chop up a 1/4 to 1/2 cups of walnuts or pecans for a nice crunch in your loaf!
