Healthy Pumpkin Bread Inspired by Downeast Maine

Ingredients 0/14

Directions

Warm your oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing and flouring three small loaf pans, about 7 by 3 inches each. In a large bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, eggs, melted butter, buttermilk, and brown sugar until everything’s combined nicely. In another bowl, whisk together the whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and the spices—cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the pumpkin mixture, being careful not to overmix. Once combined, stir in the raisins and pumpkin seeds. Divide the batter evenly between your prepared pans, then sprinkle the tops with a little raw sugar for a nice crunch. Pop them in the oven and bake until a toothpick comes out clean, which should take about 50 minutes. Let the loaves cool before slicing and enjoying!
