Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the long sides for easy removal.
  2. In a mug or measuring cup, stir 2 teaspoons French Roast Chicory Herbal Coffee into 120 g (½ cup) water until dissolved. Set aside while you prepare the remaining ingredients. (cold water or room temperature water will work)
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the freshly milled flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, espresso powder (if using), and cinnamon until evenly combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, chicory herbal coffee, oil, and vanilla until smooth.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined and only a few streaks of flour remain. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Allow the batter to rest for 10 minutes. This gives the freshly milled flour time to fully hydrate, resulting in a softer, more tender loaf.
  7. Gently fold in the semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  8. Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  9. Sprinkle the reserved chocolate chips evenly over the surface of the loaf before baking.
  10. Bake for 55–65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. If the loaf begins to brown too quickly, loosely tent it with aluminum foil during the final 15 minutes of baking.
  11. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes before lifting the loaf onto a wire rack to cool completely. I recommend you allow the loaf to sit for a few hours or overnight. This yields in a brownie like texture

Notes

Freshly milled soft white wheat creates the most tender crumb for cakes and quick breads. Letting the batter rest for 10 minutes before baking helps hydrate the bran, resulting in a lighter texture. All Purpose flour can be substituted for the fresh milled flour.
