Ingredients
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
- 1/2 cup applesauce
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup walnuts or pecans (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, coconut sugar, applesauce, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well blended.
- In another bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- If you’d like, fold in the walnuts or pecans at this stage.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top starts to brown too quickly, you can cover it with aluminum foil.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Slice your delicious pumpkin bread and enjoy it warm or at room temperature!
