Clean Eating Pumpkin Bread


This is a recipe I came up with to accomodate my family's sensitivities.  It is made with Spelt flour and sCoconut Palm Sugar.  Coconut Palm sugar is a healthier option because of its potassium, iron and vitamin content.  We exclusively use this sugar in our home.  This is still sugar and should be used in moderation.  Here is a clip from Dr. Oz coconut palm sugar:
