This is a gluten free, paleo-based bread that is divine! It’s light and moist and healthy too! The rich orange colour from the pumpkins are chock-full of beta-carotenes, the vitamin A precursor and powerful antioxidant, protecting you against oxidative stress, cancer, respiratory and cardiovascular conditions and boosting eye health. In addition, the added almond meal, coconut oil and eggs add a great abundance of good fats, protein and fibre – making this loaf an awesome alternative to your regular grain bread and oh so much yummier!

Cool and enjoy!!! It is delicious topped with avocado and tomato. It’s also great with nut butters or simply on its own.
