Whole Wheat Gingerbread image

Gingerbread is an old favorite because it's simple to make. I learned that pioneers served gingerbread with meals, but now it's considered a dessert! Serve hot or cold, with a dollop of whipped or ice cream.

Healthy Pumpkin Ginger Bread image

Super moist and delicious pumpkin ginger bread. Made with healthy additions like applesauce, maple syrup, whole wheat flour, and pomegranate seeds. All thanks to Joy Bauer and her latest book, Joy's Simple Food Remedies

Provided by Tieghan Gerard

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup whole milk ((Joy uses almond milk))
1 can (15 ounce) pumpkin puree
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup real maple syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup pomegranate seeds, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Mist a 9x5 inch loaf pan with oil.2. Add the eggs, milk, pumpkin, oil, applesauce, maple syrup, and vanilla to a medium bowl and whisk until combined. 3. Add the flours, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, baking soda, and baking powder to a large bowl and mix well. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until just combined. Gently fold in the pomegranate seeds (do not overmix). 4. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and tap the bottom a few times on the counter to even everything out. Bake on a middle rack for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (60 minutes will result in a super moist, cake like consistency; 65-plus minutes will still create a moist but firmer consistency. Both textures are delicious). Let the bread cool for at least 10 minutes. Slice and serve with pomegranate seeds.

1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs
1-1/4 cups canola oil
1 can (15 ounces) solid-pack pumpkin

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, pudding mixes, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. In another bowl, combine the eggs, oil and pumpkin. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.

Nutrition Facts :

Tips:

  • Choose the right pumpkin puree: Opt for 100% pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, which contains added sugar and spices.
  • Use quality spices: Freshly ground spices, like ginger and cinnamon, provide a more intense flavor compared to pre-ground options.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense gingerbread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake at the right temperature: A lower oven temperature (325°F) helps prevent the gingerbread from drying out.
  • Let the gingerbread cool completely before frosting: This allows the gingerbread to set properly and prevents the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

With its warm, inviting spices and moist, tender crumb, this whole wheat pumpkin gingerbread is a delightful treat that is perfect for fall and winter gatherings. Whether you enjoy it plain, with a dollop of whipped cream, or topped with a decadent cream cheese frosting, this gingerbread is sure to be a hit. So gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and let's get baking!
