Directions:
Pre heat oven to 350 degrees F.
Spray an 8 1/2” x 4 1/2” loaf pan with canola oil; set aside.
Step 1:
In a large bowl, combine brown sugar and egg with a whisk. Add pumpkin, oil, yogurt and vanilla; stir to combine.
Step 2:
In a medium bowl, combine flour, and remaining 6 ingredients, (thru the nuts). When combined, add dry mixture to wet mixture in the large bowl. Stir until just moistened. Do not over-mix.
Step 3:
Pour batter into prepared loaf pan. Place loaf pan onto a baking sheet and place in the center of the pre heated oven for 45 – 50 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack 10 minutes. Invert onto the same wire rack and cool completely before attempting to slice.
Notes Tip:
To make portioning out this bread very simple; after it has totally cooled down to room temperature, gently wrap the whole loaf in a cloth and then place it into a zip-lock bag.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before slicing. Can be frozen!
