pumpkin banana breakfast loaf
This Pumpkin Banana Breakfast loaf is the perfect way to start your day. Not only is it delicious, it is also vegan, gluten free, and refined sugar free! An all time favorite.
Breakfast is by far my favorite meal ever. I usually wake up very hungry and cannot wait to get the day started – lots to do, lots to see. So the idea of waking up to a homemade banana bread sounds like a dream to me. I wanted to add a little fall twist to my traditional banana bread, so did some experimenting and came up with this delicious Pumpkin Banana Breakfast Loaf.
And since I love a good hearty breakfast, I wanted to make it healthy too. This loaf is vegan, gluten free and refined sugar free, made with a mix of gluten free and almond flour and sweetened with maple syrup. To make it even more delicious, I love adding some whipped coconut yogurt on top and sprinkle chopped pecans (or whatever nuts you have on hand). You can also add more maple right before serving.
This recipe comes together in no time, so you can whip it up and go get ready for the day while it cooks. Or you can make it the night before and it’ll taste even better the next morning. It’s definitely a crowd pleaser, so share it with friends and co-workers, and even kids love it!
