You all know what I’m talking about, right?!Well here you go, a pumpkin bread you can feel good about eating! 

Healthy Baby Pumpkin Breads

(When I made this recipe I halved it, that is why I used mini loaf pans, be sure to use a full size loaf pan if you are making the regular recipe, unless you want mini loafs!)

(adapted from Noble Pig)

3/4 c. whole wheat flour

2/3 c. all purpose flour

1 t. baking soda

1 t. baking powder

1 t. ground cinnamon

1/2 t. ground nutmeg

1/4 t. ground ginger

1/4 t. ground allspice

1/4 t. ground cloves

1/4 t. salt

2 eggs

1 c. pumpkin puree

1/3 c. honey

1/3 c. extra virgin olive oil

1/4 c. brown sugar

1 cup walnuts, chopped (Optional-I left these out!)

  1. Preheat oven to 350o F.  Prepare an 8 x 4 baking pan by spraying with cooking spray.  I  lined my pans with parchment so I can remove the loafs easily after I take them out from the oven.  Laying the parchment over the cooking spray makes it stick to the sides.
  2. Mix all ingredients with your mixer.  Stir in chopped walnuts, if using.  Pour into prepared baking pan.
  3. Bake 40-45 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean.

  1. You made my morning Casey. And now I totally want some of those mini-loaf tins. Too cute! These look delicious and I love that they are healthy. That will make me feel slightly less guilty when I eat a bunch of them. ;)

  2. Been dying for some pumpkin (the pumpkin protein pudding I tried to make didn’t exactly make me feel all warm & fuzzy! Back to the drawing board on that one.) Definintely gonna try these – thanks Casey!
