There is no lack of Pumpkin Bread recipes out there. The problem with most of them, they have tons of sugar, fat and flour. So, I decided to create something that is not only tastes like the real McCoy but healthy too.
So, I never understood why pumpkin bread called bread. Let’s be honest, it has nothing to do with bread. My healthy Pumpkin Bread/Cake is made from scratch and has no grains, no flour, no gluten or diary. This moist and delicious pumpkin bread/cake is perfectly sweet with just the right combination of spices.
You’d never know it’s grain free, flour free and naturally sweetened and you don’t feel guilty eating it!
Here’s what you need:
2 eggs
3/4cup hazelnuts butter or any nut butter of your choice
1/2 cup honey or maple syrup if want to make vegan version or Monk Fruit for completely sugar free
1/2 cup pumpkin purée
3 tbsp melted coconut oil
2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup arrowroot powder
1 1/2 tbsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp ground nutmeg
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp lemon zest
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp salt
How to make:
1. Preheat oven to 350 F and grease loaf pan with coconut oil
2. In a blender or a bowl combine eggs, nut butter, honey, pumpkin purée, coconut oil, lemon juice and mix
3. Add to the above mixture arrowroot powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, lemon zest, ginger, salt. Mix until well combined
4. Pour the batter into the loaf pan. Bake for 60 mins until dry spaghetti comes out clean when inserted in the middle
5. Remove from the oven, let it sit for 15 mins covered with a clean towel.
Remove from the pan and enjoy!
