Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350ðF (175ðC). Grease a large loaf pan with oil or line with parchment paper.
-
In a small bowl, mix the apple juice, apple juice concentrate, and yeast. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy and activated.
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the bread flour, oats, salt, and pumpkin pie spice.
-
Add the pumpkin puree to the dry ingredients and mix until a sticky dough begins to form.
-
Pour in the yeast mixture and stir until fully incorporated. The dough will be thick and slightly tacky.
-
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for 2-3 minutes until smooth.
-
Place the dough into the prepared loaf pan. Cover loosely with a damp towel and let rise in a warm place for 45-60 minutes, or until doubled in size.
-
Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
-
Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
