Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour (210 grams)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree (244 grams)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar (100 grams)
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar (100 grams)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil (80 ml)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (175 grams)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C). Line a 6×3-inch loaf pan with a parchment paper sling.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In a larger bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the dry ingredients over the wet mixture and fold with a rubber spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips with a few strokes.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly. Tap the pan gently on the counter to release air bubbles.
  7. Place the pan in the air fryer basket, ensuring at least an inch of space around all sides.
  8. Bake at 320°F for 25 minutes. Check doneness with a toothpick; if it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, it’s done. If not, bake for another 3-5 minutes.
  9. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then lift out using the parchment sling and transfer to a cooling rack.
  10. Cool completely before slicing, at least 30 minutes.

Notes

Do not overfill the pan; fill no more than two-thirds full. Check your air fryer’s temperature accuracy. Use room temperature eggs for best texture. Let batter rest for 5 minutes before baking. Use mini chocolate chips if possible to prevent sinking.
