Why You’ll Love It

• Perfect Fall Flavor: Infused with pumpkin purée and pumpkin pie spice, this bread brings all the cozy fall vibes straight to your kitchen. The addition of Reese’s Chocolate Chips adds a touch of indulgence that perfectly complements the pumpkin’s natural sweetness.
• Nutritious Ingredients: Using Greek yogurt and protein powder, this pumpkin bread not only tastes great but also provides a protein boost. With a base of oat flour, it’s a lighter alternative to traditional recipes.

Here are the Main Ingredients you will Need:

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

In a large mixing bowl, combine the vanilla protein powder, zero-calorie sweetener, oat flour, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well with a whisk or fork to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

In another bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, canned pumpkin purée, and eggs. Whisk together until smooth and well combined.

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to a dense texture.

Fold in the chocolate chips.

Spray a loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should be golden brown and slightly firm to the touch.

Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and let it sit for 15 minutes to cool. This resting time allows the bread to set, making it easier to slice without crumbling.

Carefully remove the loaf from the pan and place it on a wire rack to cool completely.

Slice into 10 even pieces and enjoy!

Recipe Notes and Modifications:

• You can use a variety of zero-calorie sweeteners such as stevia, erythritol, or monk fruit. Adjust the amount according to your taste preference and the sweetness of your chosen sweetener.
• If you don’t have oats to blend into flour, you can use whole wheat flour or all-purpose flour. For a gluten-free option, ensure that the oat flour is certified gluten-free.
• If you prefer a stronger spice flavor, increase the amount of pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon. You can also add a pinch of nutmeg or cloves for extra warmth.
• Ensure you use pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling
• I recommend the brand Pescience Select one for protein powder, for this recipe use the Vanilla Gourmet flavour!
• Store the pumpkin bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
