Gluten-free Pumpkin Bread – Kuvings Blender

The perfect balance of pumpkin’s earthy richness and the sweetness of maple syrup, combined with a hint of creamy coconut and the comforting aroma of pumpkin pie spice, makes this gluten-free delight a must-try.

With a moist and tender crumb, you won’t believe it’s gluten-free! Plus, if you’re feeling extra fancy, sprinkle some pumpkin seeds on top for a delightful crunch.

This is a great bread to make for Halloween. It can be served warm with mashed banana and honey, eaten just as it is, or accompany a bowl of soup!

PRINT RECIPE

Ingredients:

• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 3/4 cup maple syrup
• 1/3 cup light coconut milk
• 1 tsp alcohol-free vanilla extract
• 1 3/4 cups gluten free flour
• 1/2 cup brown rice flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp nutmeg
• 1 tsp ginger ground
• 1-2 tbsp pumpkin seeds (optional)

The pumpkin was pureed in the Kuvings SV500 Vacuum Blender

Method:

1. Place the diced pumpkin in steamer or colander set over a pan of boiling water. Cover with a lid and steam for 10-15 minutes until tender. Remove and cool completely.
2. Place the pumpkin in a blender and blend until smooth. Measure out 1 cup of pumpkin puree and freeze the rest for other recipes (baby foods, dog foods, cakes etc..)
3. Preheat oven to 180C. Grease an 8-9inch loaf pan with coconut oil or line with parchment paper. Set aside.
4. In a medium-sized bowl, add the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, coconut milk, and vanilla. Whisk until uniform.
5. In another bowl, whisk together the oat flour, brown rice flour, baking powder, and spices. Whisk until uniform and lump-free.
6. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry. Stir until evenly mixed. The batter should be very thick but pourable.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared baking tin and top with pumpkin seeds and salt flakes (if using). Bake for 50-60 minutes, until browned on top and toothpick inserted comes out clean.
8. Cool for 5 minutes in the baking pan, then gently remove and place on a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve.
