Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour 1 Tbsp. Pumpkin Pie Spice 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. Fine Pink Himalayan Sea Salt

1/2 tsp. baking soda 1 (15 oz.) can unsweetened pumpkin puree 1 1/2 cups brown sugar 1/2 cup sour cream 1/2 cup vegetable oil

2 tsp. Natural Butterscotch Extract

4 eggs 1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped pecans 1 1/2 cups butterscotch chips

Maldon Sea Salt, to sprinkle

Directions

Step 1 To prepare the pans: preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease the inside of 2, 9x5-inch loaf pans.

Step 2 To mix the dry ingredients: in a medium bowl, whisk together flour, Pumpkin Pie Spice, baking powder, Fine Pink Himalayan Sea Salt, and baking soda. Set aside.

Step 3 To mix the wet ingredients: in a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin, sugar, sour cream, oil, and Natural Butterscotch Extract until fully combined. Add eggs one at a time, whisking until smooth after each addition.

Step 4 To combine: add dry ingredients to the large bowl with wet ingredients. Using a rubber spatula, stir until fully combined. Stir in pecans and butterscotch chips, reserving a handful of each to sprinkle on top.

Step 5 To bake: divide batter evenly between prepared pans. Sprinkle reserved pecans and butterscotch chips over both loaves. Bake for 40 to 45 min. or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove pans from oven and let cool for 15 min. before removing loaves to a wire rack. Cool loaves completely before slicing and serving.
