Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl

Ingredients

  • 2 pkgs quick rising yeast
  • 2 1/2 cups warm water
  • 3 TBS white sugar
  • 1 TBS salt
  • 3 TBS butter
  • 6 cups flour
  • 10 oz pumpkin butter
  • 2 to 4 TBS cinnamon sugar

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, add the warm water, yeast, and sugar. Swirl together and let the yeast bubble for a couple of minutes
  • In another large bowl, add the flour and salt, shift together
  • Add 2 cups of flour to the warm and mix together with a large spoon
  • Melt the butter, add to the flour mixture, and mix in
  • Add 2 more cups of flour and mix in. At this point you are probably having to use your hands to get it all mixed together. (if you are using a kitchen aid, it will be doing all the work for you)
  • Add the last 2 cups of flour, 1/2 cup at a time and mix in between each addition. The dough will be pulling away from the side of the bowl.
  • Once all the flour has been added, you can knead your dough for about 5 minutes.
  • Remove the dough from the large bowl and spray with cooking spray, roll the dough in the cooking spray, and cover for about 1 hour or until double in size. (This works best in a warm place)
  • Grease 2 loaf pans
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees
  • Once the dough is double, punch down. Divide into two equal portions and roll 1 portion out as flat as you can. I didn't want my width any longer than my bread pans but my length was about 3 times as long as the bread pans.
  • Spread half of the pumpkin butter all over the rolled out dough. Sprinkle with 1 to 2 TBS cinnamon sugar.
  • Starting at one end roll your dough up, tuck the ends under, and set into 1 loaf pan.
  • Repeat with the next portion of bread dough.
  • Cover both pans and let rise to double in size or fills the bread pans. About 30 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat of your oven to 375 and put your bread in to bake.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, spread 1 TBS butter over the top of each loaf, and return to oven for 5 more minutes.
  • Remove from oven and let cool 5 minutes in pans.
  • Remove from pans and let cook completely (if you can) before slicing.
