better for you pumpkin bread

Better-for-you Pumpkin Bread

Better-for-you Pumpkin Bread
‘Tis the season for all things pumpkin, my friend! I’ve been working at a pumpkin festival on the weekends selling pumpkins. I was asked to put together some pumpkin recipes to hand out, so I’ve been making delicious treats like my Pumpkin Cake with Salted Caramel Glaze.

If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen this picture I shared of our pumpkins galore at the pumpkin festival!

I needed to make some more recipes but didn’t want a sugary dessert to tempt me all week. So instead, I decided to develop a healthier version of the classic Pumpkin Bread. For this recipe, I used whole wheat flour and substituted honey instead of the sugar.

It may not be 100% guilt free, but it’s definitely a better-for-you alternative. This pumpkin bread makes a great breakfast or snack. You can even bake extra loaves and freeze them for later!
