WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE
This recipe is going to be your go-to for fall baking, a great way to get some added veggies in your diet (did you know 1 in 10 U.S. adults and 1 in 11 U.S. children eat the recommended servings of fruit and vegetables daily?). You’ll probably have all the ingredients on hand (hopefully, you keep your pantry stocked with cans of pumpkin all fall long!) It’s easy to make and is equally nutrient-dense as it is delicious. This recipe’s star ingredient is pumpkin which is loaded with vitamin A for immune support, lutein for eye health as well as fiber for good gut health. This pumpkin bread doesn’t stop there though—it’s loaded with spices for maximum flavor and antioxidant benefits such as being anti-inflammatory.
