Two pieces of chocolate chip cake on a plate.

Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Loaf Cake

Nicole Spiridakis
The dense, rich gluten free chocolate chip loaf cake is like a lightened-up version of pound cake, and made gluten free! Bittersweet mini chocolate chips are swirled throughout a tender, ultra-sliceable cake that's buttery and moist.

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 ¾ cups (219 grams) gluten free flour blend, or gluten free all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • ¼ cup sour cream, at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • ½ cup whole milk, at room temperature
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Butter and line the bottom of a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper. In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Using a handheld or stand mixer beat the butter and sugar together on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the eggs and beat on high speed for 1 minute, then beat in the sour cream and vanilla extract.
  • Beat the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, then pour in the milk on low speed. Beat on low speed just until all of the ingredients are combined. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Preheat the oven to 350℉ and rest the batter while the oven heats.
  • Bake for about 60-75 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Check at 55 minutes and check in 5-minute intervals thereafter. If the cake looks like it's browning on top add a loose tent of foil.
  • Remove the loaf and cool the cake in the pan on a wire rack for at least 1 hour, then gently turn it out to cool fully.
