Ingredients

  • 2 cups white whole wheat flour I recommend Bob's Red Mill Ivory Wheat
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • ¼ cup melted coconut oil or melted butter

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8" x 4" loaf pan with parchment paper, set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: the flour, soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
  • Add the wet ingredients: pumpkin puree, eggs, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and coconut oil or butter. Stir until just moistened—do not overmix or the bread will be tough. The mixture should be thick.
  • Spread into the prepared pan. Bake in preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until the top is brown and cracked, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out cleanly.
  • Let cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • You can sub in 1 tablespoon of pumpkin pie spice for the cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, if you prefer.
  • Feel free to add ½ cup of walnuts, chocolate chips, or pecans for a flavorful crunch.
