Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ tablespoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon ground cloves
- ½ tablespoon baking soda
- ½ tablespoon baking powder
- 4 small ripe bananas mashed
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 cup brown sugar lightly packed
- ½ cup honey
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease or line two 9x5 loaf pans with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl whisk flour, ground cinnamon, sea salt, ground nutmeg, ground clove, baking soda and baking powder.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment add mashed bananas, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, honey, and oil until combined.
- Then add eggs and vanilla and mix again just until blended.
- Carefully add in your dry ingredients and mix well (Note: it is recommended to do this in 3 batches).
- Evenly divide batter into prepared loaf pans and sprinkle and bake for about 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick from the center comes out clean but moist.
- Allow them to cool for about 20 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to completely cool.

Notes
- Don’t overbake the bread: Bake the pumpkin bread until it’s just set. Leaving it in the oven too long can cause it to dry out and crumble.
- Don’t fully mash the bananas: If you want some extra texture, don’t mash the bananas until they are completely smooth. Leaving small chunks will add flavor to the bread when you get a bite with one.
- Don’t overmix the batter: Only mix the batter until all of the ingredients are combined. This will prevent the banana bread from coming out dense and tough after it bakes.
