Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond Flour
- 2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp Nutmeg
- 2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
- Pinch of Sea Salt (or Pink Himalayan Salt)
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup Pumpkin Puree
- 4 Eggs
- 1/3 to 1/2 cup Maple Syrup (to taste preference)
- 1 Tbsp Almond Milk (or Milk of Choice), if needed
- Pepitas (Pumpkin Seeds), optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 (F). Prep a baking dish with a thin layer of light tasting olive oil.
- In a large bowl, whisk dry ingredients (almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, pumpkin pie spice, and salt) until evenly combined.
- Add pumpkin puree, eggs, and maple syrup, stir until well combined. If your batter is too dry or thick, add 1 Tbsp of almond milk (or milk of choice).
- Pour batter into prepared baking dish. Use a spoon or utensil to smooth and even out batter. Sprinkle a few pepitas (or nuts/seeds of choice) on top if desired.
- Bake for 30-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the bread comes out clean (no batter stuck to the toothpick).
- Enjoy! Top with more pepitas, your favorite nuts/seeds, a drizzle of honey or agave, cinnamon, Sweet Coconut Cream (recipe below), or your favorite Nutrifitx Approved pumpkin bread toppings.
