    Grease the box mould well. Shape the dough into an oblong loaf and add it, cover and let it rise for another 30 minutes. Preheat oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/circulating air: 175 °C/gas: see manufacturer). Brush bread surface thinly with water, sprinkle with remaining pumpkin seeds (20 g) and bake for about 1 hour.
