Today’s Unique Creation: Spicy Chocolate Pumpkin Bread

Hey there, foodies! Today I am excited to share with you a delicious and unexpected recipe that combines the rich flavors of chocolate with the warm, earthy notes of pumpkin. This spicy chocolate pumpkin bread is perfect for cozy fall days when you want to indulge in something sweet and comforting. So, let’s dive into the details of this unique creation!

Ingredients:

  • 200g pumpkin puree
  • 150g dark chocolate, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 250g all-purpose flour
  • 150g granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 100ml vegetable oil

Kitchen Tools:

  • mixing bowl
  • whisk
  • spatula
  • loaf pan
  • oven

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a loaf pan. In a mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, chopped dark chocolate, cayenne pepper, and cinnamon. Mix until well combined.

In another bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and vegetable oil until smooth. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve this spicy chocolate pumpkin bread warm or at room temperature, and enjoy the unique combination of flavors!

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 1050g, with 8 servings. Each serving weighs approximately 131g. One serving of this spicy chocolate pumpkin bread is approximately 280 calories.

Pro tip: To add an extra kick to this bread, you can sprinkle some extra cayenne pepper on top before baking for a spicy surprise!

I hope you give this spicy chocolate pumpkin bread a try and have fun experimenting with different flavor combinations. Happy baking!
