Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 flax egg 1.5 tablespoon ground flax + 4 tablespoon water
  • ¼ cup applesauce plain and unsweetened
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • ¾ cup pumpkin puree
  • ⅓ cup coconut sugar
  • 2 tablespoon banana mashed
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon ground
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 cup rolled oats gluten-free
  • ½ cup almond meal
  • 1 ¼ cup gluten-free all purpose flour I like Trader Joe's brand
  • pumpkin seeds for garnish
  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Prepare the flax egg in a large mixing bowl and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  • To the flax eggs, add pumpkin, mashed banana, maple syrup, and applesauce. Mix to combine. Next, add coconut sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice and mix. Add the water and mix again.
  • Now add the oats, almond meal, and gluten-free flour and mix together. After, fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Pour the batter into loaf pan and sprinkle some pumpkin seeds or chocolate chips on top (optional).
  • Bake for 40-45 minutes or until very golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center.
  • Remove from oven and let set in pan for at least 20 minutes and then gently transfer to a plate to cool.
  • Let cool completely before slicing, at least an hour.

Notes

  • To make the flax egg: mix together 1.5 tablespoons ground flax with 4 tablespoons water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture has thickened into a gel-like consistency.
  • Don't love chocolate? Feel free to omit the chocolate chips or replace them with another mix in like dried cranberries, pecans, or walnuts.
  • Store this loaf in the fridge so it will last longer! (4-5 days)
  • Let the loaf cool fully before slicing.
