Description

This pumpkin protein bread is made with almond flour and pea protein.  It's gluten free, dairy free and paleo friendly.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup almond flour (95g)
  • 1/2 cup protein powder (50g)*
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup organic pumpkin puree
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup egg whites
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Line an 8" x 4" loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients.
  3. Whisk in the wet ingredients.  The batter is fairly thick.
  4. Pour the batter into your lined loaf pan.
  5. Place in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 60 minutes.
  6. After baking, cool the loaf for 5-10 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a wire cooling rack.

Notes

*I recommend a pea protein for this recipe.  I used Nuzest vanilla pea protein.
