Ingredients
- Ingredients
- 16 ozs Pumpkin of your choice (results in approx. 10 ounces pulp)
- 18 ozs Spelt flour
- 1 ½ ozs Yeast
- ½ tsp honey
- 12 ozs lukewarm milk as desired (e.g. goat's milk, buttermilk)
- 8 Tbsps butter
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 ozs Pumpkin seed
Preparation steps
Pumpkin wash or peel, clean and cut into small cubes. Put the pumpkin cubes into a pot, cover with water and cook covered for about 10 minutes. Then drain, finely puree and leave to cool.
In the meantime, put flour in a bowl, press a depression into it and crumble yeast into the depression. Mix with honey, milk and some flour from the edge to a pre-dough and let it rise covered in a warm, draught-free place for 15 minutes. Melt 7 tablespoons of butter.
Add butter, salt, pumpkin puree and 1.75 ounce pumpkin seeds to the pre-dough and knead everything into a smooth dough.
Grease a box form with the remaining butter and fill in the dough. Cover and leave to rise for a further 15 minutes. Sprinkle bread with the remaining pumpkin seeds and bake in a preheated oven at 400°F for about 60 minutes.
