Ingredients
250g pumpkin puree
1 large egg
75g full-fat yogurt
75g stevia or granulated sweetener
1 tsp vanilla extract
130g self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
Spices:
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp allspice or mixed spice
Optional:
30g chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat oven to 180°C (356°F). Line a loaf tin with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together egg, yogurt, pumpkin puree, stevia, and vanilla until smooth.
Add flour, baking powder, and all spices. Mix until just combined.
Fold in chocolate chips if using.
Pour batter into the prepared loaf tin and smooth the top.
Bake for 45–55 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
If the top browns too quickly, cover with foil and continue baking.
Let cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Slice, serve warm, and enjoy!
