It’s November, that time of year when we start yearning for comfort and cozy as the cold weather settles in. We know there’s nothing quite as comforting as a snack that checks the nutrition box, and pairs perfectly with your morning or afternoon coffee or tea.
Our Gingerbread Pumpkin Loaf is sure to be a hit in your home and is the perfect addition to your recipe box for breakfast, dessert, or a snack. Most often enjoyed with a thin layer of chia jam, peanut butter, honey, or even just butter (vegan butter works too!), we promise you won’t regret dirtying up the kitchen for this one. It’s liver-friendly, free from refined sugar, and is easily customizable to meet your needs, whether that’s vegan or gluten-free.
If you’d prefer muffins over a loaf, this recipe is versatile in that you can easily pour the batter into muffin cups instead. Just remember, the muffins will cook a lot faster than a loaf, so judge accordingly with the toothpick trick (i.e., If a toothpick inserted into the middle of a muffin comes out clean, the batter should be cooked all the way through).
If you’re a liver patient, you diet is adjusted to meet your individual needs. Talk to you doctor about what’s best for you. In general, eating a balanced diet and avoiding foods high in fat, sugar, and salt can support a healthy or healthier liver.
