Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare a 5x7-inch loaf pan by placing a piece of parchment on the bottom and spraying it and the sides with oil.
  2. Make the Chocolate Batter: Melt the chocolate and coconut oil in a small bowl at 30 second intervals; stirring in between until fully melted and smooth. Add the eggs, vanilla, espresso powder, erythritol, xylitol and stevia whisking into a smooth batter. In a small bowl whisk to combine the almond flour, coconut flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, baking soda. Set both aside.
  3. Make the Pumpkin Batter: In a medium bowl whisk to combine the egg, pumpkin puree, coconut oil, vanilla, erythritol, xylitol, and stevia. In a small bowl whisk to combine the almond flour, chia seed flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture mixing until combined. Do the same for the Chocolate Batter so that you have two bowls of batter – one chocolate and one pumpkin.
  4. Divide the batter into the prepared pan by alternating ½ cup of each batter into the pan; start with the bottom layer and then do a second layer. Take a knife and swirl the batter once or twice to blend the batters. Bake for 25 minutes at 375°F then turn the oven down to 350°F and continue to bake another 40-45 minutes until light golden brown and set in the center. If the bread begins to brown too much on top cover it with aluminum foil and continue baking. Remove from oven and allow the bread to cool in the pan for 20 minutes before removing to a cooling rack.
  5. For the Glaze: Whisk all ingredients until smooth. Use immediately, it will set up forming a crust as it sits so quickly drizzle it over the top of the warm bread. Enjoy immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 week or freeze tightly wrapped for up to 3 months. Serve at room temperature or toasted.
