  • ½ tsp. ground ginger
  • ½ tsp. salt

  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • cup whole milk, warmed
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
Group: For the Glaze
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 2 Tbsp. milk
  • Cooking spray or butter (for greasing)

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • 10-inch cast-iron skillet or round cake pan
  • Kitchen towel

Method
 

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, instant yeast, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, warmed whole milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough begins to form.
  4. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for about 1 hour.
  5. Once risen, punch down the dough gently, then divide into 12 equal pieces and roll each into a ball.
  6. Melt butter in a shallow dish and mix with sugar and cinnamon. Dip each dough ball into the mixture and stack in a greased pan.
  7. Cover the pan and let the dough rise for another 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Whisk together powdered sugar and milk for glaze and drizzle over the warm bread.

Notes

Let the bread cool slightly before drizzling the glaze for a neater presentation.
