Ingredients | Best Instant Yeast For Baking

2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast

½ cup warm water

1 cup canned pumpkin

1 cup milk

¼ cup shortening

¼ cup white sugar

2 teaspoons salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

½ teaspoon ground ginger

½ teaspoon ground cardamom

2 eggs

6 ½ cups all-purpose flour

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a bowl and 2 loaf pans.

Stir yeast in warm water in a bowl until dissolved. Let sit until yeast starts to foam, about 5 minutes.

Stir pumpkin, milk, shortening, sugar, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cardamom into the yeast mixture. Add eggs and 3 cups flour. Beat, using an electric mixer on medium speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, about 2 minutes. Mix in remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl.

Turn it onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, 8 to 10 minutes.

Place dough in the greased bowl and turn to coat. Cover with a clean cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.

Punch down dough and turn onto a lightly floured surface. Divide dough in half; form into loaves and place into the prepared pans. Cover loaves with a clean cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 30 minutes.

Bake in the preheated oven until top and sides are brown, about 35 minutes.
