Pumpkin Bread with Manuka Honey

Pumpkin bread is a classic fall recipe that packs all the best flavors of the season into a single loaf. Pumpkin, ginger, and cinnamon combine to create a rich, warm flavor, embodying a crisp fall day. Served warm or chilled, it’s delicious. Pumpkin bread can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, dessert or a snack…any meal of the day, we don’t judge! It’s best served with a little spread of butter and drizzle of Manuka Honey. Our Pumpkin Bread with Manuka Honey recipe calls for a bit of Manuka Honey mixed into the bread, and also drizzled on top. This gives the pumpkin bread a touch of sweetness. Manuka Honey pairs perfectly with the pumpkin, cinnamon and ginger.

Pumpkin bread is pretty easy to make - there are minimal instructions to follow, so it’s a treat that can be made even on a busy day or weekend. It’s also pretty hard to mess this recipe up - trust us, you’ll end up with a perfectly moist, flavorful loaf in less than an hour! If you want to make this recipe a bit fancier, we suggest adding chocolate chips, pecans or walnuts - all of which make a great addition. This recipe, created for us by Well n Strong, is gluten, dairy and sugar free, making it a good class-room safe often as well. The dairy-free butter can be swapped for regular butter, if preferred.

Pumpkin bread keeps well and can be stored for a few days, but, we’re fairly certain it will get eaten very quickly and there won’t be much leftover. In fact, you should probably make a few loaves at a time! We’re also coming up on the season of giving, so if you have extra ingredients, consider making an extra loaf to share with a neighbor or friend.

Now, let’s get into the recipe.
