Healthy Pumpkin Pie Bread

Jul 21, 20201 min read


Healthy pumpkin pie loaf. This baby is delicious & nutritious. She’s refined sugar free, moist, and full of warm cozy spices. I promise that your kitchen will smell spectacular afterwards 😉.


This recipe reminds me of those cozy winter mornings in Vancouver amidst the snow. It would’ve paired perfectly with a cup of hot chocolate to warm myself up before heading to class. I honestly enjoy munching on these babies more than banana bread (shocking, I know).


This is an adaptation of Cookie and Kate's original recipe, however, I made a few adjustments to it. Give it a try and let me know how it goes!


INGREDIENTS

  • ⅓ cup melted butter or coconut oil

  • ⅓ cup sweetener of choice (I opted for honey)

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 cup pumpkin purée

  • ¼ cup milk of choice or water

  • 1 ½ tsp pumpkin spice blend (½ tsp cinnamon, ½ tsp ground ginger, ¼ tsp ground nutmeg, and ¼ tsp allspice or cloves)

  • 1 tsp baking soda (NOT baking powder; they aren’t the same!)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • ½ tsp salt

  • 1 ¾ cup flour (I combined all purpose with whole wheat)


SCRUMPTIOUS CRUMBS

  • 1 tbsp oats

  • 1 tbsp coconut sugar

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1 tbsp cinnamon

  • 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds

  • 1 tbsp flax seeds


You may follow the instructions provided by the original recipe. However, absolutely make sure to sprinkle my scrumptious crumbs recipe on top before it hits the oven - it will completely elevate your pumpkin bread game by giving it a sweet and savoury crunch!
