If you have left over pumpkin from making jack-o-lanterns then you have to try pumpkin bread. It is basically a spiced cake filled out with pumpkin puree, our version is gluten and dairy free and so deliciously spiced you won't be able to leave it alone. It is lovely on it's own, spread with butter or with a little peanut butter!

1/2tsp baking powder
1tsp ground cloves
1tsp ground cinnamon
1tsp ground ginger
1tsp nutmeg
200g sugar

Method

1. Place all the ingredients in a bowl and whisk together using an electric whisk. For the pumpkin puree, roast fresh pumpkin (about 350-400g generally yields 250g once cooked and pureed) until soft then blend in a food processor or with a hand held stick blender, you don't need to add anything to it but you may need a drop of water to loosen it in the food processor.

2. Grease and line and 2lb loaf tin and pre heat your oven to gas mark 5.

3. Pour your mix in the tin and bake for 45-50 mins until browned and cooked through, a skewer pressed in the middle should come out clean.

4. Turn out and allow to cool fully before slicing.

Use any margarine or butter if dairy free not required
