Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF and line a 9" loaf pan with parchment paper.
- Prepare the flax egg by adding 1 tbsp of flax meal to 3 tbsp of water. Let it sit for 5 minutes until a yolky consistency has formed.
- Melt the coconut oil and let it cool slightly. Then combine the flax egg, molasses, milk, oil, pumpkin puree and vanilla to a bowl. Mix until combined.
- Add all the dry ingredients together in a separate bowl and whisk together. Then add the wet ingredients to the dry. Stir until it's just combined. Option to fold in any nuts or chocolate at this point.
- Add the loaf batter to the loaf pan and spread it out evenly. Bake in the oven for 5 minutes. Then turn the temperature down to 350ºF without opening the oven and bake for an additional 30-35 minutes. Until a toothpick comes out clean and the top is slightly crispy (not burnt though).
- Let the loaf cool in the pan for at least ten minutes. Then transfer to a cooling rack to completely cool before slicing.
- Store leftovers in a sealed container on the counter top.
