Pumpkin Yeast Bread
  1. Weigh your flour; or measure it by gently spooning it into a cup, then sweeping off any excess.

  2. Place all of the ingredients into a large bowl, and mix and knead — by hand, using a mixer, or in a bread machine set on the dough cycle — to make a smooth, soft dough.

  3. Put the dough into a lightly greased bowl. Cover and let it rise until doubled, about 60 to 75 minutes.

  4. Gently deflate the dough, and turn it out onto a lightly oiled work surface. Divide it in half.

  5. Shape each half into a loaf, and place in lightly greased 9" x 5" loaf pans. Alternatively, shape half into a loaf, and the other into 12 to 16 rolls, which can be placed into two 8" round pans, or into a 9" x 13" pan. Or, simply shape all of the dough into 24 to 32 rolls.

  6. Cover the pan(s) and let the loaves/rolls rise until almost doubled, about 45 minutes.

  7. Toward the end of the rising time, preheat the oven to 350°F.

  8. Bake the bread for 30 to 35 minutes, or until its crust is a deep golden brown, and a digital thermometer inserted into the center registers about 190°F. Bake the rolls for about 20 minutes, until golden brown.

  9. Remove the bread from the oven, and turn it out onto a rack to cool.

  10. Store completely cool bread or rolls well-wrapped, at room temperature, for several days; freeze for longer storage.
