Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients
For the Pumpkin Bread:
- 5 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons mild-flavored oil melted butter, melted ghee, melted coconut oil, or avocado oil
- 2 tablespoons dairy-free unsweetened milk coffee, or water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon pink Himalayan salt
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- ½ teaspoon ginger powder
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 cup keto granulated sugar of choice 194 g
- 1 ½ teaspoons double acting baking powder
- ½ cup oat fiber 40 g
- 2 cups blanched almond flour 220 g
- 1 cup mix-ins (optional) keto chocolate chips, chopped pecans, chopped walnuts, pumpkin seeds, etc.
For the Streusel (optional):
- ¾ cup blanched almond flour
- 2 tablespoons keto granulated sugar
- Pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or dairy-free melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
- If making the streusel, make this first and set aside: in a small bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, salt, and pumpkin spice. Pour in the butter and stir with a fork until clumps form. Set aside.
- Add eggs, oil, milk, vanilla, spices, and salt to a blender. Blend on high for 20 seconds until frothy. Add the pumpkin puree and blend again for another 20 seconds. Set aside.
- To a large bowl, add the remaining dry ingredients and mix. Pour the contents of the blender in with the dry and mix until smooth. If you wish to add any mix-in, stir those in.
- Bake for 55-60 minutes. If making without streusel, cover the first 25 minutes. If making with streusel topping, keep the bread covered for 45-50 minutes.
- Remove from the oven when a toothpick inserted into the loaf comes out clean. Allow to fully cool before slicing.
Notes
- Use a 9x5 loaf pan - this is the pan we use most often.
- Use gram measurements for perfect results.
- 1 teaspoon of ginger (vs. the 1/2 teaspoon that's written in the recipe) can be used for a little bit of an extra kick kick.
- The best option for keto sweetener is granulated BochaSweet or King Arthur’s Baking Sugar Alternative. Both have very little aftertaste or cooling effect like you will have with Xylitol or Erythritol.
- If using table salt, decrease the amount to ¼ teaspoon.
- Oat fiber is not the same as oat flour - here's the one that we used.
