  • 2 cups cake flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick, 4oz) salted butter, melted
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Prehat oven to 350F. Oil an 8" x 4" loaf pan and line with parchment paper.

In a large bowl combine all the dry ingredients except the chocolate chips and whisk together.

In a second large bowl combine all the wet ingredients and beat with an electric hand mixer.

With hand mixer on slow, gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients until batter is just combined. Now fold in by hand the chococolate chips.
