Ingredients

Servings: 1
  • 1 glass (330 ml) Pumpkin
  • 500 g Whole-wheat flour
  • 1 cube (42 g) Yeast
  • 1 pinch Sugar
  • 350 ml Buttermilk
  • 100 g Butter or margarine
  • 1 TEASPOON Salt
  • 60 g Sunflower seeds
  • 7-10 Tbsp Grease

Directions

  1. 1

    Drain pumpkin well, then dice very finely. Put the flour in a bowl and make a depression in the middle. Crumble yeast into it and mix with 1 pinch of sugar, the lukewarm buttermilk and flour to a pre-dough. Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for about 15 minutes. Melt the fat and add it together with the salt, pumpkin and 50 g sunflower seeds to the pre-dough. Knead everything with the dough hooks of the hand mixer to a smooth yeast dough.

  2. 2

    Put the dough into a greased box form (25 cm long), smooth it down and let it rise for another 15-20 minutes covered. Sprinkle with remaining sunflower seeds and bake in a preheated oven (electric: 200 °C/ gas: level 3) for 60-70 minutes. Leave to cool on a cake rack for several hours. The bread goes well with a hearty ham, for example. Results in approx. 20 slices
