Impress Your Friends with a Perfect Sourdough Pumpkin Bread | Beautiful Pumpkin Loaf Recipe

This sourdough pumpkin bread looks like a real pumpkin, and it is made with pumpkin puree, so it tastes like one too. I will show you how to make a perfect pumpkin loaf for Halloween or Thanksgiving. Using cooked pumpkin instead of water in the main dough gives it an orangey-brown colour and a subtle pumpkin flavour. Pumpkin is 90% water, so the total hydration of this loaf comes to about 67%. This is the sweet spot as you get a soft loaf with a moist crumb which is still easy enough to work with and handle. You can modify the recipe and bake the bread on the same day if you wish or you can cold proof it for up to 24 hours, which is what I did.
