Chocolate Pumpkin Protein Bread
This is so moist and decadent, and seriously so indulgent! Probably one of the best loafs I've made to date! You'd never know its packed with protein & veg! Perfect for a mid-morning or afternoon snack to curb your sweet-tooth!
Ingredients
1 cup pumpkin pureed
3 eggs
1/4 cup almond milk (I used @ulu_hye) *you may need more depending on the protein you use.
1 tsp vanilla extract
4 tbsp pure maple syrup
2 heaped tbsp coconut yoghurt
2 serves (60g) Happy Way VEGAN vanilla protein (DC: HAPPYELISE)
1.25 cups oat flour
2 tbsp coconut flour
1 tsp baking powder
Pinch of salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp ginger
4 squares dark chocolate, chopped
Method
Preheat your oven to 180 degrees, fan-forced.
Add all the wet ingredients to a bowl and combine. Then add in the dry ingredients (excluding the chocolate) and mix until well combined.
Fold through the chopped chocolate.
Transfer into a loaf baking tin and place in the oven to bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden and an inserted skewer comes out clean.
Allow to cool slightly before transferring onto a wire baking rack to cool completely. Then slice and enjoy!
VEGAN OPTION: simply sub the eggs for vegan eggs & make sure you use a vegan chocolate!
