KA Flour pumpkin yeast bread

so it's been a good long while since I even thought about this recipe, but I love King Arthur Flour's pumpkin yeast bread, it was the first pumpkin bread I tried, and nothing's compared since, it's moist and fluffy and just a little bit sweet. I get some spare time and I realise I haven't baked it in a while, so I open my bookmarks to the recipe-

and I notice some pretty terrible changes to the recipe. it's been fine tuned for amateur bakers who've never handled a high hydration dough before. the changes are noted, with the original amounts and omissions included, but I'm still unsure, I'm almost positive that the original recipe didn't use eggs.

If anyone has the original recipe I'd love it if you shared, otherwise I'd just like to know if it does need the eggs.

This has nothing to do with the King Arthur recipe, but it does have canned pumpkin in it:

Up to 70% raisins can be included in the formula. They are added during the last minute of mixing (low speed).
