If you’re looking for a simple snack to last the week through that’s gut-healthy and delicious, you’ve landed on the right page! This grain-free blender gingerbread recipe, with a healthy, hidden veggie twist, is a nutritious treat, perfect any time of the year and anytime of the day! It’s paleo, gluten free, dairy free and refined sugar free.

The best thing about this awesome loaf of goodness is that it’s ridiculously easy, has few ingredients and can be whipped up in the Vibe blender in no time. You don’t even need to steam and puree the pumpkin first! Yep, we throw chunks of raw pumpkin into the blender jug with all the other ingredients and blitz. It’s a one bowl, blender batter beauty to save you time in the kitchen.

We haven’t used molasses, the traditional ingredient in old-fashioned gingerbread, but we’ve mimicked the taste by using dates and honey. This combination blends to a similar dark, syrupy consistency with just as much flavour. Add ground ginger and cinnamon and the result is a full bodied, power snack that is a marriage between a traditional gingerbread cake and a simple date loaf. Grain free blender gingerbread is seriously hearty, yet soft and moist. Eat it plain or spread it with butter, honey or your favourite nut butter.
