Ingredients
 

  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed, (=6 g)
  • 2 tablespoons water, (=30 ml)
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk, (=40 ml)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar*, (=15 ml)
  • 120 grams light brown sugar
  • 200 grams pumpkin puree
  • 3 tablespoons sunflower oil, (=40 g) + extra for greasing
  • 220 grams all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • pinch sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a loaf pan** with a little bit of oil (or vegan butter). Then line the pan with a strip of parchment paper on the longer side. Set aside.
  • Make the flax egg by combining a tablespoon of ground flaxseeds with 2 tablespoons of water. Let it sit for at least 5 minutes to thicken.
  • To make vegan buttermilk, add a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice) to unsweetened almond milk. Mix well. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine light brown sugar, pumpkin puree, and sunflower oil. Mix well with a hand whisk. Add flax egg and vegan buttermilk and mix again. Next, sift all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, a pinch of salt, pumpkin spice mix, and cinnamon. Mix until just combined. Don’t overmix the batter.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and evenly spread it to the side with a spatula.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, until a toothpick, inserted into the middle, comes out clean. Otherwise, bake for 5 - 10 minutes longer.
  • Make sure to let your pumpkin bread cool completely before serving.

Notes

* Lemon juice works as well.
** I used a 25cm loaf pan.
