Ingredients
- 3.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2.25 teaspoons instant yeast
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 0.5 cup coconut milk
- 0.25 cup pure maple syrup
- 0.25 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 unit large egg (substitute: 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal + 2.5 tablespoons water, mixed and set aside for 5 minutes)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, coconut milk, pure maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and the flaxseed egg substitute until well combined.
Step 3
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing thoroughly with a spatula or wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
Step 4
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Alternatively, use a stand mixer with the dough hook attachment for about 8 minutes.
Step 5
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and allow it to rise in a warm spot for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
Step 6
Punch down the dough to release any air bubbles, then turn it out onto a clean surface and shape the dough into a tight loaf, or divide into individual rolls.
Step 7
Place the shaped dough or rolls in a greased loaf pan or on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover and let rise again for 30-45 minutes, until slightly puffed.
Step 8
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 9
Bake the brioche in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown on top and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 10
Allow the brioche to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
