Method

Step 1 of 10

Preheat the oven to 220°C. In a bowl, mix the flour, bicarbonate, and salt.

Step 2 of 10

Add the grated pumpkin and seeds, and stir well to combine so that no clumps remain.

Step 3 of 10

Make a well in the centre and pour in the buttermilk. Stir together to form a dough.

Step 4 of 10

Use your hands to bring the mixture together into a ball, then turn out onto a floured surface.

Step 5 of 10

Knead the dough for 2 minutes until it forms a smooth mass. You may need to add flour.

Step 6 of 10

Shape the dough into a round 15cm in diameter. Place on a lined baking sheet.

Step 7 of 10

Use a sharp knife to slash a cross into the top. This helps the bread to rise when baking.

Step 8 of 10

Cook for 30 minutes in the centre of the oven until risen. Reduce to 200°C.

Step 9 of 10

Cook for a further 20 minutes. The base should sound hollow when tapped.
