Recipe Makeover-Pumpkin Bread!

I made this pumpkin bread last night and it was delicious. The best part is it is healthy and clean! It was husband and teenager approved, so I say it's a keeper! 

Ingredients:

• 2 cups of oats (blended into a flour consistency)
• 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
• 3/4 cup pure pumpkin puree
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup honey
• 2 tbsp pure maple syrup (this gives it a little extra sweetness and a great maple kick)
• 1 banana, mashed
• 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 tsp salt

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees
2. Mix all ingredients 
3. Pour batter into a greased loaf pan
4. Bake approximately 40 minutes or until firm, and toothpick comes out clean.
5. Let cool, slice, and serve!

I would suggest storing in the fridge as it has a high moisture content, it is great toasted with a tsp of real butter and cinnamon! 

This is a great treat, with whole and natural ingredients, Enjoy! Comment and let me know if you try the recipe!
