Bread Vegan Pumpkin Spelt

This bread is vegan spelt and pumpkin is not too sweet. Of course, the chocolate used to enhance a little the quality, but the bread itself is naturally sweetened with maple syrup and the sweetness is not too large.

You can use any sweetener liquid in its place. Continuing with the theme, I used pumpkin seeds as a hedge, but the roasted nuts or walnuts also work well.

Bread is ideal to accompany jams, syrups and savoury dishes. Very aromatic, and still more easy to prepare, enjoy!
