Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup wholemeal flour
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup agave syrup
  • ½ cup coconut oil melted
  • cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Optional

  • teaspoon ground cloves
  • ¼ teaspoon ginger

Instructions

Homemade Pumpkin Puree

  • Pre-heat the oven to 360°F / 180℃.
  • Cut the pumpkin in half, scoop out the seeds and place the two halves flesh side down on a roasting pan. You can add a bit of water to the bottom of the pan to keep the pumpkin nice and moist.
  • Bake for about 45 minutes or when you pierce the skin with a fork it goes right through.

Pumpkin Bread

  • Preheat the oven to 320ºF / 160℃.
  • Line a bread pan with parchment paper or grease with some oil/butter.
  • In a bowl, mix the dry ingredients – flours, baking soda, baking powder, salt and spices.
  • In another bowl, mix the wet ingredients – eggs, agave syrup and coconut oil. Add the cooled pumpkin puree little by little and mix into a smooth mixture.
  • Add the dry ingredients mixture, little by little to the wet ingredients and incorporate everything. The mixture should be quite dense.
  • Pour into the bread tin and sprinkle with some pumpkin seeds (or whatever has your fancy) and bake for about 60 - 75 minutes, based on the size of your bread tin and strength of your oven (when you insert a knife into the loaf it should come out clean).
  • Cool before serving.
