I missed the halloween train and maybe even the autumn train this year with this pumpkin bread but I think it’s still worth a post because I’m hoping you’ll like it as much as me. I’ll be eating this all winter or at least for as long as I can find pumpkins. I made it not too sweet so I can have it for breakfast, but you might want to swap the maple syrup for brown rice syrup if you want to have this bread for breakfast only as it is a less quick releasing sweetener. This will however alter the flavour a little, but it will still be delicious! If not enjoy the maple syrup flavour as you munch on the bread as a treat or an afternoon snack. The pecan nuts give it that much loved crunch, I can’t get enough of a good crunch! I also enjoy putting a little bit of cashew or almond butter on top for a little bit of creamy decadence.

hello Malin 🙂 I would love to make this pumpkin bread this weekend for my daughters who are home from college. I wasn’t sure which type of rice flour to use, brown or white. Do you remember which one you used? Thank you so much 🙂 Tanya
Hi Tanya,
Lovely, I hope you will like it! I am pretty sure I used brown rice flour. Sorry about not being specific in the recipe.
Wishing you a lovely week 🙂
