Even though Dessi is the baker in our family, I am the creator of this epic protein pumpkin marble loaf. I wanted to make a gluten free loaf with real pumpkin and my FlavCity Pumpkin Spice Protein.

The result is a moist loaf with all the flavors of fall we know and love!

If you are looking for something sweeter, try Dessi’s pumpkin spice cupcakes with frosting.

How To Make Pumpkin Loaf

Start off by adding some paleo flour to a bowl along with a scoop of my FlavCity pumpkin spice protein. Add some pumpkin spice, baking powder, and baking soda.

Beat 2 eggs with maple sugar until nice and fluffy then add 1 cup of unsweetened pumpkin puree. Add melted butter or ghee and mix well.

Add the wet to the dry mixture and beat well. Add cacao powder to half the batter and begin to fill a prepared loaf pan.

Bake for 45 minutes and allow to cool. Enjoy!

Wet Ingredients:

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 cup pumpkin puree unsweetened
  • 1/2 cup melted butter ghee, or coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F.
  2. Add all the dry ingredients, except for the cacao powder to a large bowl and mix well.

Smooth the top with an offset spatula and bake in oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean.
