I’m In Love With This Recipe!
My goodness, who knew that pumpkin bread could taste so incredibly amazing! As many of you know, I try my hardest to stay away from wheat, grains, and gluten.
Do I live and die by these guidelines? Of course not! I believe in a balance.
Baking bread can be such a challenge when you are not using all purpose flours (wheat) or if you are using gluten free or grain free ingredients.

I made this tonight! Baked my first pumpkin and I thought i was going to mess it but but how exactly do you do that? Right? So i used rice flour instead of the almond, I couldn’t find the other. It turned out pretty good! I think maybe it could be a little sweeter, i might try adding a little more vanilla next time, it was a little bland, but non the less, it tastes REALLY good! For my first organic recipe I have to say I think it turned out pretty good! I also might try cheating next time and put a sweet glaze over the top and see how it turns out. Thank you for sharing this, I will definitely be trying more of your recipes!

I used to make just a regular pumpkin bread recipe (unorganic) and I would add a box of dried instant french vanilla pudding mix in it and everyone loved it. Now I am cooking organically and want to make this recipe for my children and grandchildren but I cant use the vanilla pudding. Can i substitute it with Vanilla powder? If so, do you know how much i should add?
I am not sure how you would substitute for that. If you do try to substitute please let us know how it turns out.
This is very moist, but mine came out sort of flavorless and not sweet at all. I would definitely add some sweetener to the mix. Too bad because it would have been delicious if it weren’t bland.
I made it and I thought the same. I mixed up some butter and honey and topped each piece with it. My husband even liked it and he doesn’t normally care for honey in baked goods.
Love this recipe, it is chock full of goodness! I used 2 c coconut flour and added 1 cup of whole milk. Added 25 minutes of baking time and voila! Will make this again and again…thank you so much!
FYI, agave nectar is as bad or worse than high fructose corn syrup and will give you a fatty liver. Just because it doesn’t increase blood sugar or insulin (because it is not glucose, but fructose) doesn’t make it healthy.
Yes! it is …. No Agave!
I agree that this was rather bland, however the texture/crumb/moistness was GREAT! I’m going to make it again and try increasing the amount of spice and use 1/2 cup honey instead of just 1/4 cup. I don’t like things that are overly sweet at all but do feel this could use a tad bit more sweetness. Will also try adding some chopped nuts and mini chocolate chips at some point because I love the addition of chocolate to almost any baked good. Great recipe, Halle, thanks so much for sharing!
I like how moist this is and I think the sweetness is just right. However, It was a little bland for my taste so I will double the cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice amounts next time. Thanks for posting this recipe and helping those of us who are new to the Paleo way of life.
These comments were helpful. I doubled the pumpkin pie spice and added a bit more honey (seemed to be more tasty, not more sweet) – really, really good recipe!
Hey Sarah, when that happens to me, I make a quick cream cheese, or conf sugar icing and just drizzle over it. Just for emergency rescue! (:
Could you substitute Coconut floor for almond? Blanched Almond is hard to find..just almond meal..which I’m trying today..fingers crossed…i have also used once frozen organic bananas( no way I’m throwing them out because they get ‘past ‘what I would eat raw) with the pumpkin
..in a similar recipe and it came out even moister and deli-sh!

Hello my son is allergic to coconut so I was wondering what I could substitute and how much for the coconut oil. THANK YOU!
Followed instructions to a T and this just came out of the oven. It’s like a brick of bland bread. Moist, yes. Made with healthy ingredients? Yes. But oh so not worth it.
