Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing pan)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or nonstick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and homogenous.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly using the back of a spoon or spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve the bread on its own, or enjoy with a spread of butter or cream cheese.
