Pumpkin bread with plum-chutney

What would autumn be without the pumpkin season… Definitely only half as beautiful, right? If you ask me about my favourite pumpkin recipe – I couldn’t commit myself at all. I actually like everything with pumpkin. Whether pumpkin soup, baked pumokin, or a sweet pumpkin porridge… Pumpkins are nutritious, healthy, delicious and incredibly multifunctional to use in the kitchen. A pumpkin bread is definitely a beautiful and delicious classic that fits well into the current season.

Pumpkins are healthy.

Pumpkin contains numerous healthy vitamins and minerals such as zinc, which primarily serves to strengthen the immune system.

The valuable carotenoids, such as beta-carotene – a precursor of vitamin A – give the pumpkin its beautiful colour. We need vitamin A for healthy cell growth, to strengthen the immune system and to protect against free radicals. Particularly colourful foods such as pumpkins (but also beetroot, carrots, paprika…) are rich in carotenoids and, according to studies, help to prevent heart disease and cancer.

As pumpkins are also very rich in fibre, they also keep our digestion and metabolism going. The abundant vitamin E in the seeds is considered a valuable antioxidant in protection against free radicals and ensures a clear skin.

So everything we need at this time of year to stay fit, healthy and beautiful.

Appropriately, I have this delicious pumpkin bread recipe for you. I think this recipe should not be missing in autumn. It is incredibly juicy and delicious, which is mainly due to the fact that the pumpkin puree is directly processed in the bread dough. The addition of curcuma adds this beautiful golden-yellow colour to it. In any case, it is also a real eye-catcher visually. After all you also eat with your eyes. Prepared it is super fast, whereby you must include here the time to „rest and rise“.

In my opinion the pumpkin bread fits perfectly into this beautiful autumn season and tastes great at any time of the day. I had a sweet-spicy plum chutney (recipe comes) in addition, but just with some olive oil or a little sea salt it tastes at least as good.
