Pumpkin and Chocolate: A Perfect Fall Pairing

Combining pumpkin with chocolate is meant to be. The pumpkin keeps the bread moist and adds a natural, earthy sweetness, making it an excellent baking ingredient.

Chocolate is scattered throughout the bread, enhancing the pumpkin’s natural sweetness. I used a mix of chocolate chunks and chips because biting into a chunk of chocolate is always a nice surprise.

The generous blend of warming pumpkin pie spices makes this gluten-free Pumpkin Chocolate Fudge Bread an excellent addition to your autumn recipe collection.

A Healthier Twist on Gluten-Free Pumpkin Bread

As I mentioned, this pumpkin bread is on the healthier side. Pumpkin itself is a great choice—lower in carbs than other winter squashes and packed with nutrients like calcium and potassium.

Additionally, this bread is gluten-free and dairy-free, made with heart-healthy olive oil, protein-rich eggs, and sweetened with maple syrup.

Why Add Brown Sugar and Maple Syrup? The Secret to Rich Flavor

You might wonder why both brown sugar and maple syrup are used. Brown sugar, a mix of white sugar and molasses, adds a deeper color and a richer flavor to pumpkin-spiced recipes. Molasses not only enhances the taste but also brings additional nutritional benefits, including essential minerals like iron, calcium, magnesium, and potassium. This makes it a great complement to the pumpkin, boosting both flavor and nutrition.

Simple Steps to Perfect Pumpkin Chocolate Fudge Bread

One bowl is all you need for this recipe. Start by gathering your ingredients and mixing the dry components in a large bowl—just leave out the chocolate chips for now. Next, add the wet ingredients and gently stir everything together.

Finally, fold in some of the chocolate chips, and your batter is ready to go in the oven.

Once the pumpkin bread is baked and cooled, drizzle the chocolate fudge sauce over the top. That’s right—it’s all about the chocolate fudge sauce. YUMMY!
