We haven’t tested this recipe with anything else, but I’m sure you could sub either all-purpose flour or an all-purpose gluten-free flour blend.brown sugar– a little bit of brown sugar goes a long way. If you’re looking for a substitution, I’d use coconut sugar or another granular sugar.cocoa powder- since this is CHOCOLATE pumpkin chocolate chip bread, the cocoa powder is essential! Make sure you look for a cocoa powder that is unsweetened for the best results.chocolate chips- Don’t skimp on the chocolate chips…is a rule when making chocolate pumpkin bread.
How to Make Chocolate Pumpkin Bread
Chocolate Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread Tips
The pan you use matters, too. There is no wrong answer, but if you use a metal loaf pan, it distributes the heat more evenly, where there is more of a chance of uneven cooking in a ceramic pan. Add the coconut oil last: Make sure that you add the coconut oil last so that it doesn’t firm up when it mixes with the other cold, wet ingredients. Don’t over bake: Make sure to keep an eye on the center of your loaf. If you overcook your bread, it will end up tough and crumbly.
Storage Recommendation
Let the pumpkin bread cool completely. Then, wrap it with a piece of tin foil and store on the counter in a cool, dark place for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to 5 days.
