Categories     Bakery Goods

Time 3h40m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 ¼ cups bread flour, plus more for dusting
1 ¼ cups whole wheat flour
1 ¼ cups toasted pecans
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup warm water
2 ¼ teaspoons instant yeast
1 cup unsweetened pumpkin puree
¼ cup maple syrup

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the bread flour, whole wheat flour, pecans, chocolate chips, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Stir well with a rubber spatula.
  • In a separate large bowl, whisk together the warm water, yeast, pumpkin purée, and maple syrup.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and use a rubber spatula to stir until the dough just comes together. With your hands, knead the dough in the bowl until there are no dry, floury spots remaining. Cover the dough with a kitchen towel and let rest in a warm place for 60 minutes, or until almost doubled in size.
  • Using the spatula, fold the dough toward the center of the bowl 8 times, rotating the bowl each time. Cover with the towel and let rest for 30 minutes more.
  • Place a Dutch oven with a lid in the oven, and preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) for 30 minutes.
  • Lightly dust a clean surface and your hands with flour. Carefully turn the dough out of the bowl and onto the floured surface. Fold the edges of the dough towards the center 8 times, then flip the dough over and transfer to a piece of parchment paper.
  • Carefully remove the Dutch oven from the oven (it will be very hot) and use the parchment to lift the bread into the pot. Cover with the lid.
  • Bake the bread for 35 minutes. Remove the lid and reduce the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C). Bake for 15 more minutes, until the bread is golden brown.
  • Carefully slide the bread out of the pot and onto a wire rack. Remove the parchment paper and let the bread cool for at least 1 hour before slicing.
  • Slice the bread and serve as desired.
  • Enjoy!

SPICED PUMPKIN BREAD

This is the best pumpkin bread I've ever tasted! I got the recipe from the November, 1995 issue of Bon Appetit Magazine. It was submitted by Vern Bertagna of West Frankfort, IL. Enjoy!

Provided by Bev I Am

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 1h30m

Yield 2 loaves, 16-18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1 (16 ounce) can solid pack pumpkin
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  • Butter and flour two 9x5x3" loaf pans.
  • Beat sugar and oil in large bowl to blend.
  • Mix in eggs and pumpkin.
  • Sift flour, cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, salt and baking powder into another large bowl.

  • Transfer to racks and cool 10 minutes.
  • Using sharp knife, cut around edge of loaves.
  • Turn loaves out onto racks and cool completely.
  • Makes 2 loaves.

Tips:

  • Fresh is best: Use fresh pumpkin puree for the best flavor. You can make your own puree by roasting a pumpkin and then scooping out the flesh, or you can buy canned pumpkin puree.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the bread tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Toast the pecans: Toasting the pecans will bring out their flavor. You can toast them in a toaster oven or in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Don't overbake the bread: The bread is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can make the bread dry.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing: This will help the bread to hold its shape and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

This spiced pumpkin pecan bread is a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for fall. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you are serving it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, this bread is sure to be a hit.
