Gluten Free Marble Pumpkin Loaf

by: claire cary

This gluten free marble pumpkin loaf is the perfect cross between spiced pumpkin bread and decadent chocolate cake. It's so fun to make, with unique swirls and even dairy free friendly.
Prep: 20 minutes
Cook: 1 hour
Total: 1 hour 20 minutes

Ingredients

Wet

Dry

For marbling

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 9x5 (8 1/2 x 4 1/2 also works) loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together all wet ingredients until well combined.
  • Whisk in the dry ingredients, making sure to spoon and level the flour to measure. Scoop out 1 1/2 cups of batter and add to a second mixing bowl. Whisk in the cocoa powder and milk to that second bowl of batter.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips to the chocolate batter. I only added chocolate chips to the chocolate batter, but you can also add to the plain batter if you like.
  • I use a cookie scoop to do this, but any spoon or scoop works fine! Alternate scooping the batter into your prepared loaf pan. There is no "right" way to do this! You can add a layer of plain to the bottom, add the chocolate on top and alternate, or add smaller bits of each and just keep layering until you finish both batters. Smooth out the top and sprinkle on some chocolate chips on top. Also delicious with a cinnamon streusel on top. You can find the recipe for that in my gluten free pumpkin muffins.
  • Bake for 65-70 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. If the top browns prematurely, just tent the top with foil. Let cool in the pan for about 20 minutes, then remove from the pan to finish cooling completely.
  • Slice and enjoy! I love a drizzle of honey on top, but delicious just as is!

Notes

This loaf requires a pretty long bake time- a bit over an hour. This is to ensure the center fully cooks and we aren't left with any gummy or mushy middles. Insert a toothpick pretty deep into the center of the loaf and it should come out clean with a few moist crumbs- not wet!
