This week I have a baking theme of Yellow, baked a Pumpkin Loaf and a pumpkin bagel with sprouted wheats
Heres the formula i used for pumpkin loaf. The Toasted pumpkin seeds compliment really well with this bread, giving it a nutty kick!! fantastic with veg and veg burger.

I was about to slap my monitor, why is it displaying bread as yellow! :) Very nice looking bread, it sounds interesting.
Congratulations.
Thanks Darwin,
Give this a try it would make a very nice bread for toast. n its really similar to Dan Leopard pumpkin n whey bread. but this one has slightly higher hydration.

pumpkn bread. You got the hydration just right to get the crumb to open like that - and glossy too. Love the sprouts too. You are really getting the hang of this bread baking thing! Well done and
Happy baking
Thanks DAB~~
Working with vegetables in loafs are really tricky, it felt wetter than a tartine country loaf, i suppose its close to 80% which i was expecting a more open crumb. Im a bit disappointed thou.
Regardless of the little dense bottom, it is perfect as a toast or bread by itself. N sprouted wheat is really really good, nice n chewy with a bit of sweetness. Only problem is those closer to surface is really tooth breaking @@
That's a beauty, inside and out! As far I'm concerned, you can never go wrong with pumpkin seeds in bread. I like the veg burger match, too - I can almost taste it! Nice!

That is sooo true especially with the pumpkin seeds toasted, its irresistible!!
