Pumpkin Carrot Bread

Servings: 5 people

Ingredients

  • 325 g bread flour
  • 2 tbsp milk powder
  • 2 tbsp white sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 115 ml carrot juice
  • 90 g pumpkin steamed until softened
  • 30 g salted butter softened
  • 4 g instant yeast
  • 50 g melon seed lightly toasted

Instructions

  • Steam pumpkin until soft and blend them together with carrot juice.
  • Put all of the ingredients into a breadmaker starting from the wet ingredients.
  • Pumpkin carrot juice, an egg, milk powder, sugar, bread flour, yeast and salted butter.
  • Set to menu 7: Sweet Bread, weight: 500g, and crust: light setting to start the machine.The machine will start to operate and knead the dough
  • Let the machine run until the timer indicator reaches around 2 h and 40 minutes. The machine will give a light beep sound which indicates to us that it is time to add out melon seeds.
  • Now the next step is optional but I highly recommend you to do this as it will help the overall bread to rise nicely later. When the timer indicator reaches around the 1 h 25 minutes mark, take out your bread dough and also the machine's dough hook.
  • Quickly, press the dough onto a clean surface to remove all the air bubbles out and roll into a nice smooth ball.
  • Carefully put the dough back into the pan and let the dough proof for another 40 minutes.
  • Then, for that perfect look, brush some egg wash and sprinkle the melon seeds.
  • Let the machine run its thing until it finishes the setting.
  • Once baked, remove the bread from the tin immediately and let it cool on a wire rack while you brush some melted butter over the top for a nice shiny finish.
  • Slice it up and serve.

Notes

If you are baking it in the oven, I recommend using 450g of bread tin and bake it in the oven at 180C for around 35 to 40 minutes
