PUMPKIN BANANA SPELT BREAD



Pumpkin Banana Spelt Bread image

The inspiration for this recipe came from a blog called The Southern Lady Cooks. I love banana bread, but banana and pumpkin bread is out of this world delicious. I love spelt flour and use it sometimes in place of regular all-purpose flour. I place the loaves into a cold oven and find that the bread turns out more moist this way and doesn't have such a large crack down the middle.

Tips:

  • Pumpkin Puree: For the best flavor, use homemade pumpkin puree. It's easy to make and tastes much better than store-bought.
  • Spelt Flour: Spelt flour is a nutritious alternative to all-purpose flour. It's higher in protein and fiber, and it has a slightly nutty flavor.
  • Baking Soda: Be sure to use fresh baking soda. Old baking soda can lose its potency, resulting in a flat and dense bread.
  • Pumpkin Pie Spice: Pumpkin pie spice is a blend of spices that is commonly used in pumpkin-flavored recipes. It typically includes cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and allspice.
  • Mixing: Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough and dense bread.
  • Baking: Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can dry out the bread.
  • Cooling: Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help the bread set and prevent it from crumbling.

Conclusion:

This spelt pumpkin bread is a delicious and healthy fall treat. It's made with wholesome ingredients and is naturally sweetened with maple syrup. The bread is moist and flavorful, with a slightly nutty flavor from the spelt flour. It's perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack.
