My mother prepares these amazing sweet pumpkin thalipith (paratha). It is labour of love. This thalipith should be cooked over low flame, so for 8-10 thalipiths it can easily take over 1hr.
So today I was just thinking about this delicious thalipeeth and it strike me that I can easily bake some kind of pumpkin bread with this receipe. So I immediately started working on the receipe, and happy to say its a winner. You can try this simple receipe on some winter morning, the cinnamon in the bread will fill your whole house.
Ingredients:
3.5 cups grated pumpkin
2 cups* atta
2 cups grated jaggery
1/4 cup oil
1 heaped tsp cinnamon powder
1 tsp salt
1.5 tsp baking soda
Handfull of sultanas
Receipe:
Mix grated pumpkin and jaggery and keep it for 10-15 min. This will help the water ooze out. Add sultanas, salt, oil and cinnamon powder. In the wet mixture add dry ingredient (atta + baking soda). You need to adjust atta quantity such that the final mix is not too wet. Transfer mix in baking tin. Bake for 35-40 min at 180 C in pre-heated oven. Cool over rack and serve immediately.
P.s. If you feel the mixture is too dry then add little bit of milk.
