Mix the flour, yeast, salt, 1 tablespoon of the sugar, and warm water.
Add the neutral oil and knead the dough for 8 minutes.
Rest the dough in a warm place for 45 minutes, until risen.
Grate the pumpkin and mix it with the walnuts, cinnamon, and remaining sugar.
Roll the dough into two pieces, spread the pumpkin filling between them, and seal the edges.
Brush the top with egg yolk and rest on the tray for 10 minutes.
Bake the pumpkin bread at 185°C for 35 minutes, until golden.
💡 Tip: Do not squeeze all the liquid from the grated pumpkin; a little moisture keeps the inside of the bread soft.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice the walnut pumpkin bread warm and serve it for breakfast or an afternoon plate with tea and clotted cream if desired.
