Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
• 0.75 cup brown sugar
• 0.5 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 0.25 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt until well combined. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, beat together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, applesauce, Greek yogurt, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and homogenous.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture, stirring just until the batter is smooth and no streaks of flour remain. Do not overmix.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 6

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

Step 7

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then remove it from the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 8

Slice and serve as a delicious breakfast or snack, ideally with a warm cup of coffee or tea.
