Nourishing Almond Flour Pumpkin Bread

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8 ½ x 4 ½ inch loaf pan with parchment paper. Spray the pan with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking. Set aside.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, pure maple syrup and vanilla extract until well combined. Add in the almond flour, oat flour, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice/cloves, baking soda and salt. Use a wooden spoon to combine until no lumps remain. Fold in ½ cup chocolate chips.

Step 3

Pour batter into prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips on top. Bake for 55 minutes-1 hour or until the tester comes out clean in the middle of the bread. Cool bread for 10 minutes in the pan, then remove and transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling completely. Once cool, cut into 12 slices. The bread is best the next day. To serve: top with your favorite nut butter or butter and sprinkle with a little sea salt and drizzle of maple syrup. Enjoy!
