1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9-by-5-
inch loaf pan with vegetable cooking spray.

2. In a large mixing bowl, use an electric
mixer on medium high to beat together
egg, egg white, sugar, and maple syrup until
blended, about 3 minutes. Add oil, orange
juice, pumpkin, and orange zest, if using,
and mix on medium-low speed until mixture
is well blended, about 30 seconds.

3. In a medium bowl, stir together
both flours, baking powder, baking
soda, salt, cinnamon, and cloves.
Add to the pumpkin mixture and
beat on medium speed just until
incorporated — do not overbeat.
Using a rubber spatula, gently stir
in the apricots. Transfer batter to the
prepared pan. If desired, sprinkle
surface with pumpkin seeds.

4. Bake bread for 50 to 55 minutes,
or until a toothpick inserted in the
center comes out clean. Cool bread
10 minutes in the pan, then transfer
to a cooling rack. Cool at least 30
minutes before slicing. Serve warm
or at room temperature.
