Ingredients

• 1 cup Pumpkin puree
• 1 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, unsweetened applesauce, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix well until fully combined.

Step 3

In another bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt.

Step 4

Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix as this will result in a denser bread.

Step 5

If using, fold in the chopped walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 9

Serve slices of this delicious sugar-free pumpkin bread on its own or with a spread of your choice.
