To make pumpkin bread, first, put a block of grass fed butter (1 cup) and a half cup local honey in a mixer and beat until frothy, about 20 minutes.

Add one tablespoon cinnamon, 2 teaspoons nutmeg (freshly grated nutmeg is best), 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon of mace, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 2 teaspoons vanilla, 1 teaspoon almond extract and two cups of packed pumpkin or butternut squash. 

Add 4 eggs and 4 cups of almond flour, alternating one egg, mix thoroughly, one cup flour, mix thoroughly, one egg, mix thoroughly, one cup flour, etc, until blended thoroughly. 

Pour into muffin liners, or a buttered 9 x 13. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes or until cooked thoroughly so the top has browned, cracked and doesn’t jiggle. 

Adding more pumpkin will make this bread more of a brownie. 

This pumpkin bread will disappear fast!
