Pumpkin Spice Pecan Bread, I can’t get enough of it. This recipe is made with good for your ingredients.

This recipe is also dairy-free, unless you slather it with butter once sliced.

It’s versatile, eat it with coffee as a dessert or alongside your breakfast.

Pumpkin Spice Bread is my jam, you guys!

This recipe is a simple quick bread that I made with whole-grain flour to boost the nutritional value.

Coconut oil is used instead of vegetable or canola because that’s pretty much how I roll. Coconut oil is my jam too.

Don’t worry, it doesn’t taste like coconut. The pumpkin flavor is the star here.

Are you sick of Pumpkin Spice?

I get that a lot of people are sick of pumpkin, but I’m just never going to be. If you are really tired of pumpkin then feel free to replace it with some other squash puree or even a sweet potato.

I’ve made plenty of butternut squash or acorn squash baked goods, like these acorn squash donuts and these acorn squash cupcakes.

Recently I posted about this sweet potato custard so don’t feel confined to pumpkin, it’s okay to branch out.

Can I Substitute the Pecans with Walnuts?

If you prefer walnuts, feel free to substitute those in for the pecans. If you’re allergic to nuts, they are not mandatory so you can remove them from the recipe altogether.

I haven’t personally made this recipe without nuts so I can’t be blamed for you removing them but heck, give it a try if you want.
