    Given below is a pumpkin bread recipe healthy with a tasty brown sugar topping that adds a twist to the traditional pumpkin bread that your guests and family will love. You can even prepare the bread up to 2 weeks in advance and then warm it up in the microwave before serving.

    Ingredients

    • Items needed:
    • 1 cup of all-purpose flour
    • 1 cup of whole-wheat flour
    • 1 cup of coarsely ground cornmeal
    • 1 cup of brown sugar
    • 1 tablespoon of baking powder
    • 2 teaspoons of baking soda
    • 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon
    • 1 teaspoon of ground ginger
    • 1 teaspoon of salt
    • 1 1/2 cups of pumpkin puree
    • 1 cup of plain non-fat yogurt
    • 1/3 cup of applesauce
    • 2 large eggs
    • 2 large egg whites
    • 2 cups of dried cranberries
    • For the brown sugar topping:
    • 1/2 cup of brown sugar
    • 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts
    • 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
    • 2 tablespoons of flour
    • 2 tablespoons of butter (softened)

    1. Preparation:
    2. - In a mixing bowl, mix the brown sugar topping ingredients together using a fork to get a crumbly mixture. Set aside.
    3. - Grease and flour two 9x5 inch baking loaf pans; this recipe makes two bread loaves of 12 slices each.
    4. - Preheat the oven to 350F.
    5. - In a deep bowl, take the eggs and egg whites and beat them together.
    6. - Add the yogurt and applesauce to the mix and blend well.
