Main Ingredients

  • 1.75 cups sprouted light spelt flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1.5 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.75 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 0.125 teaspoon ginger
  • 3 large eggs
  • 0.5 cup oil (melted coconut oil)
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling
  • 0.25 cup apple cider, orange juice or water * optional

Crumble Topping (optional)

  • 0.25 cup sifted spelt flour
  • 2 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin seeds
  • 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions
 

Making the Bread

  • Preheat oven to 350℉. Prepare a loaf tin by lining with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and spices.
  • In a separate bowl, combine eggs, pumpkin, oil and water.
  • Fold the wet ingredients into the dry until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • In a separate bowl, combine crumble ingredients by rubbing between your hands until the mixture clumps together.
  • Pour pumpkin bread into loaf tin and spread evenly with a spatula. Crumble the topping overtop and very gently press it into the batter.
  • Bake for 45-55 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool for a few minutes in the tin before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice loaf gently with a serrated knife.

Notes

Apple cider and orange juice both add a hint of extra sweetness and a nice depth of flavour, but the loaf is still delicious with water if you don't have either handy!
