Paleo Pumpkin Cranberry Bread





This is a recipe I had seen a while back and decided to give it a try. With the help of my daughter we made it. Most people like pumpkin during the fall but I had all the ingredients at hand and decided to do it plus I simply love pumpkin all year long.
Here is the recipe:
PREP TIME: 15 minutes
COOKING TIME: 1 hr.
YIELD: 1 medium loaf


Ingredients:
5 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup pumpkin puree (can be canned or fresh, if fresh, cook, cook and strain excess water from your pumpkin before using it in this recipe)
1/2 cup coconut oil,melted(I used Trader Joe's Organic Virgin Coconut Oil)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 cup cranberries


Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350F.
Whisk the eggs, pumpkin, coconut oil, pure vanilla extract, and maple syrup together in a large mixing bowl. Sift in the coconut flour, sea salt, baking soda, and spices and stir until well combined. Gently fold in the cranberries.




Pour into a loaf tin (natural parchment works best for lining), and bake for 1 hour or until a an inserted toothpick comes out clean. 


Enjoy!
