Healthy Pumpkin Bread with “Cream Cheese” Frosting

This Pumpkin Bread with “Cream Cheese Frosting” is gluten-free, dairy-free, low in sugar and the perfect healthier fall treat!

My healthier pumpkin bread is a delish twist on the classic pumpkin bread I grew up with— sans refined carbohydrates and blood sugar spike 😉

As you may be able to tell by now, I am obsessed with all things pumpkin! It’s a close tie between pumpkin + cream cheese frosting and pumpkin + chocolate chips for me. Which do you guys prefer?

PS. check out my video tutorial HERE.

For this Healthy Pumpkin Bread with “Cream Cheese” Frosting, you will need:

• oat flour— I LOVE breads and muffins made with oat flour! They always turn out so fluffy. You can make oat flour by blending oats in a high speed blender until you reach a flour-like consistency. If you don’t have a blender, you can buy oat flour at the store or online quite inexpensively!

• pumpkin puree— obv 🙂 make sure you use 100% pumpkin puree… not the sweetened variety.

• coconut sugar— feel free to use regular sugar instead if you wish!

• oil— I use avocado oil. It is flavorless and great for high heat cooking. I buy large bottles at Costco.

• eggs

• baking soda

• pumpkin pie spice— you can find pumpkin pie spice at most grocery stores and online. If you cannot find it or don’t want to buy it, you could also use cinnamon.

• sea salt
