Protein Pumpkin Bread

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F (160°C fan), grease, and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix together the pumpkin, eggs, cottage cheese, and vanilla until smooth.

Step 3

Mix in the flour, protein powder, sweetener, baking powder, and spices until fully combined (depending on the brand of cottage cheese you use, it may be chunky – that is okay!).

Step 4

Pour the batter into the loaf pan and top with pumpkin seeds if desired.

Step 5

Bake in the oven for about 55 minutes, covering with foil after 30 minutes or so if the top is starting to brown a bit.
