Rye pumpkin bread with bran

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Ingredients.

2. Step 2:

   

   Cut the pumpkin into cubes, boil until soft. Drain the broth. I used it instead of water when making sourdough and kneading dough. Mash the pumpkin in mashed potatoes.

3. Step 3:

   

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

4. Step 4:

   

   During this time, the sourdough should rise like a "cap", not very high.

5. Step 5:

   

   Sift the rest of the rye and wheat flour well, mix with oat bran and spices. Mash the dough, add 70 ml of warm water (or broth), flour mixture, salt, vegetable oil.

6. Step 6:

   

   Knead the dough until smooth, so that it slightly lags behind the hands. We leave the dough to approach in a warm place, covered with a towel, for 2-2.5 hours.

8. Step 7:

   

   During this time, our dough came up well. We are crushing it.

9. Step 8:

   

   Grease the baking dish with oil, I used a glass one. We also lubricate our hands a little and shift the future bread into a mold, level the surface. Cover, leave in the heat to rise for 1 hour.

10. Step 9:

    

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

11. Step 10:

    

    Bake with steam at 200 degrees. 15 minutes to form a crust. Then we reduce it to 180 degrees. and bake for about 25 more minutes. Ready-made bread is immediately "washed" with water, let it cool down a little in the form. Then we wrap it in a towel.

12. Step 11:

    

    Rye bread is better to eat the next day, it will be even tastier. Bon appetit!
