Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flakes
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin seeds
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseeds + 3 tablespoons of water, soaked for 5 minutes)
  • 3 tablespoons almond milk
  • 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 °F.
  • In a medium bowl, first combine the dry ingredients, then add the wet ingredients (vanilla extract, pumpkin puree, flax egg, almond milk, and melted coconut oil) and whisk with a wooden spoon.
  • Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and pour the batter into the pan. Bake for 40-45 minutes, depending on your oven. Or check by inserting a toothpick in the center of the pumpkin bread, it should come out clean.
  • Cool completely before slicing. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Instead of brown sugar you can also use maple syrup or coconut sugar. 
  • To make a gluten-free version, substitute oat flour for the all-purpose flour. You will have a flatter bread this way, but it will still be super yummy. 
  • Use whole wheat flour for a healthier version. 
  • You can either use store-bought pumpkin puree or make your own. I usually make my own and freeze it for later.
  • I used 1/2 cup of coconut flour and I highly recommend following the recipe and using it. It gives the pumpkin bread such a great texture and taste.
