Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper or grease it with coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, arrowroot flour, pumpkin seeds, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted coconut oil, apple cider vinegar, and honey until well combined and slightly frothy.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until you have a thick batter.
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle additional pumpkin seeds over the top of the bread if desired for a crunchy topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
