Pumpkin and Chocolate Plumcake
To prepare this delicious pumpkin and chocolate plumcake, first clean the pumpkin by removing the peel, seeds, and inner strings. Cut it into small pieces. Place them on a baking sheet and bake in a well-preheated static oven at 350°F for about 15-20 minutes or until they become very tender.
Let them cool well. Blend them with cinnamon and oil until you get a smooth, homogeneous puree.In a bowl, mix the granulated sugar and brown sugar with the eggs.
Add the pumpkin puree and mix well.
Then add the previously sifted baking powder and flour, and stir with a spatula until you get a homogeneous batter.
Finally, add the chocolate chips. Mix briefly and transfer the batter into a loaf pan lined with parchment paper. Level it and sprinkle additional chocolate chips over the surface.
Bake in a preheated static oven at 350°F for about 40 minutes, checking the degree of baking with a toothpick that should come out dry.Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack before slicing and enjoying.
