Vegan Pumpkin Gingerbread by weeklybite

The temperature is dropping!!!!  Make yummy things.  Lots of them.  Give them to your friends.

I know I posted a recipe for gingerbread cupcakes, earlier this month.  I can’t help it.  It’s one of my favorites!

Make this bread in muffin tins and frost them with vegan “cream cheese” icing.  Yay cupcakes!  And THANK YOU weeklybite.

You can make these gluten free simply but substituting gram flour (chickpea flour) for the whole wheat, below.  Yes, seriously.
