Ingredients

• 1 cup Pumpkin puree
• 3 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt (unsweetened, non-fat)
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Whey protein powder (unflavored or vanilla, sugar-free)
• 0.25 cup Coconut flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1.5 teaspoons Pumpkin pie spice
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.33 cup Granulated monk fruit sweetener (or preferred sugar-free alternative)
• 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, Greek yogurt, almond milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, combine the almond flour, whey protein powder, coconut flour, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, salt, and monk fruit sweetener. Stir until the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 4

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

If using, gently fold in the chopped walnuts or pecans for added texture and flavor.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the pumpkin bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Slice and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
