2 cups milk, warm |
1/4 cup butter (softened or melted) |
2 cups pumpkin (mashed, cooked or 1 can of pumpkin) |
2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 cup wheat germ (can omit and use flour instead) |
10 -12 cups all-purpose flour (use a mix of white and wheat flour(1/3 whole wheat to 2/3 white) |

1. In large mixing bowl, combine sugar, water, milk, butter, pumpkin, and salt. Mix well.
2. Add wheat germ, 7 to 8 cups of the flour, and yeast.
3. Mix and then continue adding flour and kneading until dough is elastic and not sticky.

6. Punch dough down and divide into thirds.
7. Divide each third into 16 pieces and shape into balls.
