Ingredients
Scale
- Wet Ingredients:
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup melted coconut oil (or oil of choice)
- ½ cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Dry Ingredients:
- 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
Mix Wet Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, eggs, melted coconut oil, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Beat these together until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Whisk Dry Ingredients:
- In another bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt. Ensure these are thoroughly mixed to distribute the leavening and spices evenly.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to keep the bread tender.
Bake:
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve:
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve.
Notes
- For extra richness, consider adding a half cup of chopped walnuts or pecans.
- You can enhance the pumpkin flavor by adding a tablespoon of pumpkin spice mix instead of the individual spices.
- Ensure all ingredients, especially pumpkin puree and eggs, are at room temperature to blend smoothly.
