Ingredients for the Pumpkin Bread Chocolate-Pepita Swirl
- ¼ cup pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
- 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
- ½ teaspoon plus 1 pinch kosher salt, divided
- ¼ cup miniature semi sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut up
- ⅔ cup canned pumpkin
- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup milk
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Steps in making Pumpkin Bread Chocolate-Pepita Swirl
- Step 1 For swirl: In a small dry skillet, toast pepitas over medium, shaking occasionally, until most have popped and turned golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Let cool. In a food processor, combine pepitas, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and the pinch salt. Pulse until mixture forms gritty bits. Stir in chocolate chips.
- Step 2 Grease an 8×4-inch loaf pan and line with parchment paper. Set oven rack in the center position. Preheat oven to 350°.
- Step 3 For bread: In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, the ginger, and nutmeg.
- Step 4 In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium. Cook, stirring and scraping bottom of pan with a silicone spatula, until butter is riddled with golden brown specks, about 8 minutes. (You’ve just made brown butter.) Remove from heat and stir in the remaining 1 cup sugar. Let cool 5 minutes.
- Step 5 Add pumpkin, egg, milk and vanilla to butter mixture, stirring to combine. Stir in flour mixture just until combined. (Don’t fret over lumps.)
- Step 6 Scrape half the batter into prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle with the swirl mixture. Cover with the remaining batter. Use a chopstick or butter knife to carve a few letter S’s through the pan, lightly swirling mixture into batter.
- Step 7 Bake until a toothpick poked in the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Cool in pan on a wire rack 10 minutes. Tip bread out of pan and cool completely.
