Ingredients
Pumpkin Batter
- 1¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- ¾ cup canned pumpkin puree
- ⅓ cup plain greek yogurt
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Chocolate Batter
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ⅛ tsp salt
- ½ cup whole milk
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoon neutral oil
- 1 large egg
- ¼ teaspoon instant espresso powder
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Ganache Glaze
- ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and line with parchment paper, leaving a little overhang for easy removal.
- In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together pumpkin purée, Greek yogurt, oil, both sugars, eggs, and vanilla. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- In a medium bowl, blend together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and espresso powder if using.
- In another bowl, whisk together milk, sugar, oil, egg, and vanilla. Stir wet into dry until smooth and glossy.
- Alternate scoops of pumpkin and chocolate batter into the loaf pan. Use a butter knife to gently swirl the batters together in a figure-8 motion for a marbled effect. Don’t over-swirl.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean (a few moist crumbs are fine).
- Let cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then lift out and cool completely on a wire rack.
- Place the chocolate chips and cream in a microwave safe bowl, and melt them in the microwave in 20 second bursts, stirring well each time.
- When most of the chocolate has melted, stir until smooth. It should only require a minute or two. Add Vanilla and stir until smooth.
- Once the cake is fully cooled, pour ganache over the top. Use a spatula to gently nudge it toward the edges for a natural drip effect. Let ganache set before slicing.
