You can find detailed step-by step-photos above the recipe card.
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line an 8x4-inch (20x10 cm) loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, applesauce, eggs and almond butter until smooth.½ cup pumpkin puree, 1 cup unsweetened applesauce, 2 eggs, ¾ cup almond butter
- Add the diced apple, baking powder, cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice and flour. Stir with a spatula just until no dry flour remains.1 apple, 1 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice, ½ cup + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for about 40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then lift it out and let it cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- Flour: For the best result, weigh the flour with a kitchen scale. If you don’t have one, scoop the measuring cup straight into the flour and level it off; that’s how I measured the cup amount. Whole wheat flour works in place of all-purpose flour. With self-rising flour, leave out the baking powder.
- Almond butter: Use one made from 100% almonds. It gives a marzipan-like flavor; use peanut or cashew butter if you don’t like marzipan.
- Storage: Fridge for up to 4 days in an airtight container, or freeze slices for up to 3 months.
