Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a standard 9x5 inch loaf pan lightly with a non-stick spray or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Whisk together until evenly blended.
In a separate medium bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, unsweetened applesauce, almond milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir until fully incorporated, but do not overmix. The batter will be thick.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the surface with a spatula to ensure it’s evenly distributed.
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Enjoy this healthy pumpkin bread as a snack, breakfast, or side!
