In another bowl, whisk together the 6 eggs, vanilla and honey, then stir in the mashed pumpkin.
In another bowel mix together the almond meal, coconut flour, pumpkin spice, baking soda and salt and mix well with a fork. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix well. Then stir in the coconut oil until well incorporated.
Pour into the prepared tin carefully. Sprinkle some pumpkin spice on the top and then scatter some pumpkin seeds.
Bake in the oven for 15min then cover the top with baking paper and foil and bake for a further 45min or until a skewer comes out clean.
Remove bread from the oven when cooked and leave it in the tin for 10min before turning out to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into slices and store in the fridge.
