Pumpkin Zucchini Bread, Gluten-free by Jennifer     Print this Recipe

Comments

"I have 3 kids, ages 4 and under, and they all loved this!  Pumpkin bread is one of their favorites, and I love that this was a gluten free mix (couldn't tell the difference at all from ones with gluten!), and sneaking in the zucchini is a great way to get some additional veggies in them!"

Preheat

Oven to 350 degrees F

Equipment

9x5 loaf pan, electric mixer, 2 mixing bowls, food processor or grater

Prep Time

10 minutes

Cook Time

50-60 minutes (may vary by oven)

Number of Servings

1 loaf (about 10 servings)

Instructions

  1. Coconut oil

    Grease 9"x5" loaf pan.
  2. 2 cage-free eggs

  3. 1/4 cup Stevia in the Raw

  4. 1/4 cup Xylitol

  5. 1/3 c unsweetened organic applesauce

  6. 1 c canned organic pumpkin

  7. 1 tsp no-sugar-added pure vanilla extract

    Mix together in a large bowl. Beat with electric mixer until well blended.
  8. 2 cups Pamela's Gluten-free Baking & Pancake mix

  9. 2 tsp ground cinnamon

  10. 1 tsp ground allspice

  11. 1/2 tsp salt

    In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients. Gradually stir into wet ingredients. Mix just until blended.
  12. 2 cups grated organic zucchini

  13. 1/2 cup chopped organic walnuts

    Add zucchini and walnuts and stir by hand. Pour into loaf pan and bake 50-60 minutes (may vary by oven).

Options

Make kid-sized muffins rather than a loaf and decrease bake time to about 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.  Or make 2-3 smaller loaves and adjust baking time according to pan size.  If you do not have cinnamon and allspice, replace with 1 Tablespoon pumpkin pie spice.  If you do not have stevia and xylitol, Jennifer recommends substituting 1/2 to 3/4 cup sugar in the raw depending on how sweet you want it!
