Ingredients

• 1/2 c organic pumpkin purée
• 2 large eggs organic at room temperature
• 1/2 c extra virgin olive oil
• 1.5 c flour
• 1/2 c coconut sugar
• 1/4 c granulated sugar
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg freshly grated
• 3.5 oz dark chocolate bar roughly chopped
• 1/3 c sea salt caramel melted
• 1/3 c unsweetened coconut flakes
• A pinch of sea salt
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp coarse sea salt flakes

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350" F.
2. In a medium size mixing bowl whisk together the eggs, olive oil, vanilla extract, nutmeg, sugars and pumpkin puree until combined.
3. Using a separate bowl combine the flour with a pinch of sea salt, baking powder and baking soda. Stir in the chocolate chunks but reserve a few to sprinkle on top, then add the flour mix to the bowl with the wet ingredients.
4. Using a spatula fold the two together until combined, but without over-mixing.
5. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper leaving some hanging out on the sides to make the removal process easy. The extra parchment paper will serve you as handles.
6. Pour the pumpkin bread batter in the loaf pan and sprinkle with the reserved chocolate chunks. Press them down gently using the palm of your hand.
7. Bake the pumpkin bread in the preheated oven for 35 to 45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost clean. Transfer it to a wooden board and allow it to cool. Use the parchment paper to easily remove the pumpkin bread from the loaf pan.
8. While the bread is cooling toast the coconut.
9. Spread the coconut on top of a parchment lined baking sheet in a thin layer. Toast it in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes, stirring one or twice making sure not to burn. The coconut is toasted when nicely golden. Remove from the oven and let cool.
10. Once your pumpkin bread has cooled off, drizzle it over the top with the caramel, sprinkle with a pinch of coarse sea salt flakes and cover with the toasted coconut. Allow to cool completely before slicing.
