No it’s not oatmeal, no it’s not pumpkin bread, it’s called a Pumpkin Breakfast Bake. A happy medium between the 2 favorites of mine, perfect for this fall weather and the upcoming pumpkin craze. It’s everything pumpkin bread is, fluffy, hearty, and delicious, with an extra “oomph” of the chocolate chips and crunchy nuts! I’ll admit it, Im a huge fan of pumpkin, I have it year-round, not just in autumn. If you want the taste of pumpkin bread but you don’t have the patience for baking it, make this single serving chocolate chip pumpkin bread in a mug and it will satisfy your cravings, trust me.

Hi I just tried this recipe and I was disappointed, it didn’t look at all like your picture (the cinnamon turned it a brown-ish colour) and I had to cook it for six and half minutes and i still feel like it wasn’t cooked enough. Usually my microwave is really powerful and doesn’t need the full cooking times for recipes. The coconut flour made it grainy and the only saving grace was the chocolate chips that I dumped in the thing , but I still couldn’t finish it. I followed the directions to a T, was there something else I did wrong?
