Pumpkin is one of my favorite vegetables to eat – I love eating it all year ’round!  I used to stock up every fall on canned pumpkin, I remember once I bought about 20 cans from Aldi’s and the person at the register probably thought I was crazy.  Now, I can find it all year around, Whole Foods has a fantastic canned pumpkin available every month of the year.

This Vegan Pumpkin Bread Recipe Is Made With:

• Canned Pumpkin – I stock up on this canned pumpkin (its a big can!) or you can get smaller cans as well. Make sure to use pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie mix or else it will be too sweet.  If you do have pumpkin pie mix, you can still make this yogurt bowl, just use a plain unsweetened yogurt instead of vanilla.
• Apple Sauce: I used a delicious apple sauce for this recipe, but you can always add a cinnamon apple sauce for a little extra spice!
• All Purpose Flour: I only use King Arthur flour which has a really nice texture and crumb. It’s a really nice consistent flour, so it goes into all my breads, muffins, and cakes!
• Sugar: I used a plain white granulated sugar for this recipe, but you can use whatever sweetener you have on hand. If you prefer a natural sweetener (like coconut sugar) you can substitite instead of white sugar.
• Cinnamon: gives these muffins a warm spicy kick! I love a pinch of cinnamon in my muffins, and these are the perfect fall or winter breakfast.
• Vanilla Extract: Use a pure vanilla extract, not artificial baking vanilla. It’s a small thing, but it makes a huge difference in the taste of these muffins… real vanilla all the way, in all your recipes!
• Coconut Oil: Gives these muffins a really silky texture, and the hint of coconut flavor is really nice with the apples and cinnamon.
• Baking Soda: I love keep baking soda in the pantry for baking, and also for cleaning.  This baking soda works great for both.
• Baking Powder: I like to use a no sodium baking powder in all my recipes, that way I can control the amount of salt that goes into my food.
• (Optional) Crumble Topping: made with sugar, cinnamon, coconut oil, and flour.  Definitely optional, but highly recommended.  The crumble topping gave this bread a fantastic crunch and sweetness.

How Do I Make This Vegan Pumpkin Spice Bread?

1. Mix all ingredients in a large bowl (except the crumble topping, mix those in a spearate bowl).
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
3. Pour batter evenly into 6 mini loaf pans *(see below for other baking options).
4. Top with crumble mixture if using.
5. Bake for 45 minutes until pumpkin bread is cooked all the way through.  To check, stick a toothpick in the center of the loaf, and if it comes out clean, then the pumpkin bread is ready. If not, cook for another 5 minutes and repeat the toothpick test until it comes out clean.  Enjoy!

Loaf Baking Pans & Times

• I used 6 mini loaf pans for this recipe, the batter made enoug for 6 perfect sized loaves – 45 minutes in the oven was enough for these.  If you are using 12 muffin/cupcake tins, 45 minutes should be perfect.
• For 2 regular-sized loaf pans or a 9×9 baking dish, cook for 50 minutes, and check with a toothpick to make sure they are cooked through. If not, put them back in the oven and check every 5 minutes until they are cooked.

Dietary Modifications for this Pumpkin Bread (Vegan + Gluten Free)

• This recipe is naturally vegan, vegetarian, dairy free, and egg free!
• To make this gluten free, substitute a 1:1 baking mix for the all purpose flour.
• To make this refined sugar free, replace the sugar with a natural substitute. I’ve only tested this recipe with granulated sugar, so substitute the amount you typically would of any other sweetener.
