Keyword pumpkin bread, sweet bread
Servings 1 loaf

Ingredients

  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar softened
  • ½ cup butter
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • cups flour
  • 3 teaspoons cocoa
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 tablespoons greek yogurt

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine the sugars and softened butter. Mix well. Stir in each egg and then the vanilla extract until just combined. Set aside.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Remove half of the mixture to another bowl (yes, a third bowl), and to this add the cocoa. Now, divide the butter mixture in half between these two bowls.
    Add 1/4 cup pumpkin puree and a tablespoon of greek yogurt to each. Stir until just combined. 
  • Add the batter to a buttered loaf pan in large spoonfuls, dispersing the two colors throughout. Then use a knife to swirl the batter around. 
  • Bake at 325°F for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before removing it from the pan.
