Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, applesauce, honey, eggs, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
  3. In another bowl, sift together gluten-free flour blend, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, turmeric, nutmeg, and ginger.
  4. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 35-45 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
  6. Let the bread rest in the oven for 10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  7. Once cooled, slice and enjoy plain or with a light spread of cream cheese.
