Healthy Homemade Pumpkin Rye Bread

Delicious and healthy homemade rye bread. The good thing about making homemade bread is that you can add any ingredients to it and make its taste more original. Each time you can experiment by adding different spices and seeds. At the same time, the bread turns out much tastier than store-bought, with an appetizing crispy crust.

Step 1
Ingredients.

Step 2

Step 2
Cut the pumpkin into cubes and boil until soft. Drain the broth. I used it instead of water when preparing the dough and kneading the dough. Mash the pumpkin into puree.

Step 3

Step 3
For the dough, mix 60 ml of warm water (or pumpkin broth), sugar, yeast and 40 g of sifted rye flour until smooth. Place in a warm place for about 50 minutes.

During this time, the dough should rise like a “cap”, not very high.

During this time, our dough rose well. Letʼs crush him.

Step 8

Grease the baking dish with oil, I used a glass one. We also grease our hands a little and transfer the future bread into the mold, leveling the surface. Cover and leave warm to rise for 1 hour.

Step 9

The surface of the dough should be level, i.e. the dough has risen sufficiently. You can make cuts with a sharp knife. Brush the dough with water and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Step 10

Step 10
Bake with steam at 200 degrees. 15 minutes for a crust to form. Then reduce it to 180 degrees. and bake for about 25 minutes more. We immediately “wash” the finished bread with water and let it cool slightly in the pan. Then we wrap it in a towel.
