Description

To make sweet pumpkin bread aromatic, I added orange juice and orange zest. I also added a bit of turmeric to enhance the bread’s color. I want to point out the flour amount—you may need a little more than the recipe states, due to the varying juiciness of the pumpkin. But you shouldn’t make the dough too stiff; it’s sweet bread, it should be soft. Let’s move on to the recipe.

Instructions

    6. Grease your hands with vegetable oil, knead the dough well. Tie it with a thick string so that you get 8 segments. Do not tie it too tightly, because the dough will rise. Leave the future “pumpkin” in a warm oven for about 15‑20 minutes to rise.
