- 1 1/2 cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1 cup canned pumpkin
- 7 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup butter, softened (optional)
- Dissolve yeast in warm water and stir in sugar, salt, 1/2 cup butter, pumpkin and eggs. Add 3 cups of the flour and beat well. Stir in enough additional flour to make dough easy to handle. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic. Place in greased bowl, covered, and allow to double in size.
