Paleo Pumpkin Bread

When eating strict paleo I try to have a "bread" of some sort around at all times.  It helps with the cravings and makes you feel less like you're on a diet, and more so that you're just living this lifestyle.

This is so delicious that most people can't tell that it doesn't have flour or sugar!  Enjoy!

½ cup (generous scoop) Coconut Flour
2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
½ tsp Ground Nutmeg
¼ tsp Ground Cloves
1/4 tsp Ground Ginger
½ tsp Baking Soda
¼ tsp Sea Salt
½ cup + a little more Organic Pureed Pumpkin
6 eggs
4 Tblsp Coconut Oil
1/4 cup Pure Grade B Organic Maple Syrup
1/4 cup Honey
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Organic unsweetened Raisins or Walnuts if desired (about ½ cup to taste)

Preheat the oven to 400°.  Wisk dry ingredients together in a bowl and set aside.
In a mixer, beat eggs.  Add remaining ingredients except for pumpkin and mix well.  Add pumpkin and mix again.  Slowly mix in flour and beat until most of the flour lumps are gone.  Fold in raisins, etc.

Grease loaf pan VERY VERY well with cooking spray.  If you’re making muffins, use a bare pan well greased, or aluminum foil muffin liners.  Do not use paper as it will stick to the muffins.
Bake Bread for approx 30mins or until cooked through.  Start checking it at 25mins as some ovens cook differently.  
Bake Muffins for 18-20mins

Makes 12 muffins or 1 loaf of bread
