Lately, Erik and I’ve been arguing about what’s better: pumpkin bread or pumpkin muffins. I mean… the things we have time to argue about, ya know? 😉

So what do you think? Are you all for vegan pumpkin bread or are you more Team Pumpkin Muffins? (Shirts should be made, I think.)

I’d argue that vegan pumpkin bread is better because you can just pour all of the pumpkin batter into a loaf pan, bake it and slice it. That’s it.

Erik’d argue that vegan pumpkin muffins are better because you can create perfectly portioned mini “cakes” of pumpkin bread, simply in VIP-level special vessels of pumpkin awesome-ness, no slicing needed, whatsoever. (Or, you could just make pumpkin coffee cake, but that’s a whole ‘nother matter…)

Vegan Pumpkin Bread Recipe

Well, if you’re Team Vegan Pumpkin Bread, then welcome to the right side. Ha! 😉 Or, just click over to this vegan pumpkin muffins recipe and you do you! If not, read on about why this easy vegan pumpkin bread recipe is one of my absolute fall favorites.

This easy vegan pumpkin bread recipe is ridonkolously easy to made (even easier than it was to make up that spelling—I just pressed on ALL the keys), has the perfect cozy, fall taste, and the most pleasing texture. Read on to see what it’s all about…

Easy Vegan Pumpkin Bread: Taste & Texture

This easy vegan pumpkin bread is moister (sp?? Help!!) than my gluten free vegan pumpkin bread. The result? Perfectly moist vegan pumpkin bread that’s deliciously dense, but not overly so. This vegan pumpkin bread is just lightly fluffy, with a soft interior and a bready exterior. With rich pumpkin flavor, this easy vegan pumpkin bread is the best: think cozy, warm spices and lightly sweet crumb. 

How to Make Vegan Pumpkin Bread

Whisk the Wet Ingredients

Whisk together all vegan pumpkin bread wet ingredients: pumpkin puree, coconut oil, coconut sugar, maple syrup, flax egg and vanilla.

Add the Dry Ingredients

Add the dry ingredients to the same bowl: gluten free oat flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, spices and salt. Yep, this is 1-bowl! Whisk until no flour bits remain.

Pour Batter

Pour vegan pumpkin bread batter into a prepared loaf pan.

Bake

Bake for about 66 minutes.

Cool & Slice

Cool and slice the best vegan pumpkin bread ever!

Description

Easy Vegan Pumpkin Bread: this vegan pumpkin bread recipe is moist, deliciously dense & lightly fluffy. The best vegan pumpkin bread—rich pumpkin flavor, warm spices & lightly sweet.


Scale

Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup 100% pure pumpkin puree
  • ¼ cup melted coconut oil
  • ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons coconut sugar
  • ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon golden ground flaxseed + 3 tablespoons water, whisk together, set for 15 mins)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups gluten free oat flour – if using homemade oat flour, make sure it’s very finely ground (not coarse)*
  • ½ cup finely ground, blanched almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8-inch loaf pan with parchment paper or greased foil. Set aside.
  2. Add the wet ingredients to a large bowl: pumpkin, coconut oil, coconut sugar, maple syrup, flax egg and vanilla. Whisk until well incorporated.
  3. Add the dry ingredients: oat flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, spices and salt. Whisk together until just incorporated, making sure no flour patches remain. The batter will be thick—do not add additional liquids. If needed, use a rubber spatula to fold in the last bit of flour.
  4. Transfer batter into prepared loaf pan. Using a rubber spatula, spread batter into an even layer, with a rise down the center (mimic the shape of a perfect loaf). The batter will bake up very similar to how it looks raw, so it’s important to create the final, baked shape you want. Using a butter knife, cut a slit down the center of the loaf to create a beautiful split on top.
  5. Bake for 60-70 minutes. Mine took 66 minutes. Place loaf pan on a cooling rack for 1 hour. After 1 hour, lift parchment paper and loaf out of pan and place directly onto the cooling rack to finish cooling, about 2-3 hours. Slice and enjoy! Storing instructions below.

Freezing Instructions: Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 month. Allow to thaw at room temperature for 30 minutes, or heat in the microwave in 10-second increments until just warm.

    Hi. Do you think I could chop roasted blanched unsalted almonds into tiny size pebbles to replace almond flour? Thus just before it turns to almond butter? My husband has issues with the processing done with “raw” almonds. I would love to have the nutrition of the almonds. I never know how almond flour was processed. . Thanks

      Hi Deborah, I’m concerned that no matter how finely you chop the almonds, they won’t be fine enough to resemble almond flour (so inconvenient, I know!). Have you tried throwing your blanched almonds into a food processor and slowly processing in smaller increments? It’s a bit of a tedious process, but you’ll be able to pick out any coarse pieces of almonds that remain and go back to just process those bits. Otherwise, try my almond flour-free pumpkin bread –> Gluten Free Pumpkin Bread and maybe have some almond butter on top for the added nutrition? 🙂 Enjoy!

    Made this tonight and it turned out lovely! Baked up perfectly too. Can I omit the coconut sugar next time? If so, do I need to add in something else to replace it?

      Hi Tasie, I’m so glad to hear that you enjoyed my pumpkin bread recipe! 🙂 If you’d like to omit the coconut sugar next time, be sure to replace it with another granulated sugar. If not, I’m afraid you’ll have to do some experimentation based what you use to sub it with. Enjoy!

    Cannot have grains thus no oat flour can I use just almond flour or chickpea flour instead of oat. Help!!

      I haven’t used chickpea flour or all almond flour in this recipe myself. Based on other people’s experience, chickpea flour would be a sub, BUT, some say that you need to increase the amount. If you give this a try, just know that it’ll probably take a bit of experimentation and adjustment until you get just the right texture. Good luck!
