Ingredients
- 1 lb pumpkin peeled and cubed
- ⅔ cup water
- ½ cup aquafaba the liquid from a can of chickpeas
- ⅔ cup olive oil
- 2 ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 5 tbsp coconut sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground cloves
- ½ tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C/350 and line a large baking tray with parchment paper. Add peeled and cubed pumpkin to the baking tray, and bake for 15-20 minutes, until fork tender. Then, transfer to a blender or food processor, and blend until a purée forms.
- Next, in a mixing bowl, combine the water, aquafaba, olive oil and 1 cup pumpkin purée. In a different mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, coconut sugar, cinnamon, ground cloves and salt.
- Then, add the wet ingredients to the dry, and mix until a smooth batter forms.
- Grease a standard loaf tin with some vegan butter or olive oil. Pour the batter into the loaf tin, and bake at 180 degrees C/350 for 40 minutes. After this time, remove the loaf from the oven, cover with foil, and bake for 15 minutes more.
- Allow the vegan pumpkin bread to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
