Ingredients





  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose Gold Medal Flour


  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon


  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg


  • 1/2 teaspoon ground clove


  • 1 teaspoon salt


  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder


  • 1 teaspoon baking soda


  • 2 cups sugar


  • 3 sticks 1 1/2 cups unsalted butter, softened


  • 6 large eggs


  • 1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree NOT pumpkin pie filling


  • 1/2 cup maple syrup


  • 1 1/4 cup chopped semi-sweet chocolate or chips


  • 1/2 cup California-made heavy cream


Instructions





  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place 6 small 3x7 loaf pans on a baking sheet (or use 2 large loaf pans.) Spray them thoroughly with non-stick cooking spray.


  • Mix the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a medium bowl and set aside. Then using an electric mixer and a separate bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy—3-5 minutes.


  • Add the eggs, pumpkin, and maple syrup to the butter mixture and beat until smooth. Then slowly add the flour mixture until just combined. Scrape the bowl and beat again.


  • Evenly distribute the batter into the loaf pans. Bake small loaves for 30-40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Bake large loaves for 50-60 minutes.


  • Allow the loaves to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes. Then place the chocolate in a microwave safe bowl and pour the cream over the top. Microwave for 60-90 seconds until the cream is hot. Then allow the chocolate to sit another 2-3 minutes. Stir well to melt all the chocolate chunks into a smooth thick ganache.


  • Either drizzle the chocolate ganache over the loaves in pans (for gifts) of gently dump the loaves out of the pans and drizzle with ganache to serve.
