Quick Pumpkin Bread

Quick Pumpkin Bread
For: 2 loaves of breadDifficulty: EasyPreparation: 20 minCooking: 30 minRest: 2h30

The other day, I had half a squash to use and I wanted to make a slightly funky bread with it! So I tried creating a squash bread with sunflower seeds. And we loved it! It adds a lot of softness and a little sweet taste. This bread has a tighter and more "brioche-like" crumb compared to others, so I especially recommend it for breakfast! Toasts on this bread are delicious 😍

  • Mix the instant yeast in warm water to rehydrate it.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the squash puree and water with the yeast. Knead the dough by hand for a few minutes to achieve a smooth and slightly sticky texture.
  • Cover the container with a clean, damp cloth. And let the dough rise at room temperature for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes.
  • Divide the dough in half and form two round loaves (you can lightly flour your hands to make it easier to shape). Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Using a brush, moisten the loaves with water and sprinkle them with sunflower seeds. With a sharp knife or a razor blade, score the top of the loaves to create a slashing (it can be a cross, just a line, whatever you like, so the loaves rise more evenly). Let the dough rest at room temperature for an additional hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C (355°F) and place a dish filled with water on the bottom rack.
  • Place the breads on the top rack of the oven for approximately 20 minutes of baking time.
  • Remove the dish filled with water from the oven and continue cooking for another 10 minutes. The crust should be nicely golden!
