We already have tons of pumpkins growing on our farm and to say I’m obsessed would be an understatement. I drive my hubby crazy because I start decorating for fall in mid-August.

PUMPKIN ZUCCHINI BREAD NO SUGAR
This pumpkin chocolate zucchini bread is easy to make and gets a helping hand of fiber due to the pumpkin puree. The pumpkin puree also helps make it extra moist and gooey, just how zucchini bread should be!
For serving this scrumptious bread, may I suggest serving it warm with slices of grass-fed butter and a cozy drink like iced coffee or a pumpkin spice latte? This bread will make your entire week!
For this recipe, I use apple butter and molasses instead of sugar. No refined sugar around these parts!
This zucchini bread is not gluten-free, but you are welcome to try using gluten-free flour for this recipe. I have not made this version gluten-free, but I suspect that if you used the right flour, it would just as moist as the original recipe.

A FEW PRO TIPS TO PERFECT ZUCCHINI BREAD
This recipe includes melted coconut oil which helps make this bread super moist. Make sure you cool your coconut oil after melting it before adding the coconut oil to the batter. I also suggest using room-temperature eggs for this recipe.
For the zucchini, make sure to squeeze out the excess moisture from the zucchini after grating it, and if you have leftover zucchini, use it for pasta sauces and soups!
Speaking of pasta! Tomorrow’s, zucchini recipe is a pasta-like recipe that I know you are all going to love! Hint: It’s low-carb too.
