How to Make Harvest Moon Yeast Risen Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves.
- Set aside.
- In a 1-quart saucepan, heat and stir together 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted margarine or butter, and 1/2 teaspoon salt until warm (105-115°F) and the margarine is almost melted.
- Add the warm milk mixture to the flour mixture.
- Stir in 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree.
- Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, scraping down the sides of the bowl constantly.
- Beat on high speed for 3 minutes.
- Using a wooden spoon, stir in 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans, 1 cup chocolate chips, and as much of the remaining 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour as you can while still maintaining a slightly sticky dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
- Knead in enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (about 5-7 minutes).
- Shape the dough into a ball.
- Place in a lightly greased large bowl, turning once to grease the surface.
- Cover and let rise in a warm place (75-85°F) until doubled in size (about 1-1.5 hours).
- Punch down the dough.
- Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and let rest, covered, for 10 minutes.
- Lightly grease an 8x4x2-inch loaf pan.
- Shape the dough into a loaf and place it in the prepared pan.
- Cover and let rise until doubled in size (about 30-45 minutes).
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Brush the top of the loaf with milk.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If necessary, cover with foil during the last 10-15 minutes to prevent over-browning.
- Remove from the pan and let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
