Nutty Pumpkin Yeast Bread

1. 1

   Make pumpkin juice by blending water with pumpkin puree or steamed pumpkin flesh with skin on (I include the seeds too because my blender is sharp.).

2. 2

   Put into the bread machine the juice, oil, flour, salt, sugar, yeast, and sesame seeds. Use the dough cycle.

3. 3

   Knead into the resulting dough the pumpkin seeds by hand. (Else the green skins will fall off in the machine's spinning.).

4. 4

   Form a ball, insert saved stem, with scissors cut slits 3 times (every 20 minutes) at the same places during one hour of proofing. Spray water from time to time.

5. 5

   After it's become doubled in size (mine grew sideways,) spray some water and bake at 180degrees 20-30min. (Or until the color is right and inside measures 80 degrees Celsius.).
