Jump to Recipe |Â Print Recipe
I Looooove fall! It’s definitely my favorite season. I wish it were longer. Autumn seems to be very short-lived in Texas. If I had it my way, fall would be the longest season of them all. I love the weather, I love the colors, I love the decorations, I love Halloween, and I especially love the smells and the food!
Pumpkin is one of the things I look forward to the most. ‘Tis the season for pumpkin-flavored everything! I am a big fan of pumpkin. So get ready for some upcoming pumpkin-inspired recipes!
And here is the first!
This is a very dense and moist bread. Â I made one loaf yesterday to test out the recipe, and it is nearly gone now.
I made another loaf today to tweak and perfect the recipe, and it is just as good, and it’s disappearing! This could be a great treat to take for Thanksgiving or Christmas!
I seriously love this paleo pumpkin bread. Â I want to make this all the time and eat it. Â I took a loaf to work and it was gone before noon, which made me a little upset because I didn’t grab myself a slice before it was gone. I hope you enjoy! Let me know if you like it!

Bread recipes like this are the bomb, and it’s so nice to come across a recipe that incorporates pumpkin without it being solely pumpkin spiced 😉 I’m sure the chocolate adds a nice richness and puts a unique spin on it!
Thanks Dana! I love pumpkin and chocolate together 🙂

Thank you Karen! I love dense breads too

The texture of this paleo pumpkin bread looks fantastic. Coconut and almond flours really do work so well in breads like this! What a great way to enjoy all of the flavors of fall. This would make the perfect afternoon snack with a cup of tea!
That’s exactly how I just had mine right now, with a cup of chai! Thanks Amanda!
Loving all the pumpkin recipes these days. This bread looks so good!!
I love the sound of the coconut and almond flours in this pumpkin bread! It sounds really tasty and I’d love a slice for breakfast right now.
This looks great! I must admit I thought going paleo meant you could not bake at high heats … too many lifestyles and I get confused 🙂
