Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons of Stevia powder

- 2 cups of unbleached 100% whole wheat flour (I use King Arthur’s)
- ½ teaspoon of salt
- 2 cups of 100% pure pumpkin
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon of ginger
- ¼ teaspoon of allspice
- 1 teaspoon of nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
- Note: You can substitute 2 ½ teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice for the ginger, allspice, nutmeg and cinnamon, if you prefer.
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Use cooking spray to lightly coat loaf pans.
- Mix the Stevia, applesauce and egg until creamy. Add the pumpkin and beat until smooth. Add the dry ingredients and mix until fully incorporated. Spoon into loaf pan.
- Bake for about 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in the bread/cake comes out clean.
- Note: You can use this recipe to make muffins, but they cook faster. So check them frequently.
