Dear parents,

We baked cookies today in the kindergarten, and we had such a good time, and enjoyed them so much.  We thought you would enjoy baking them in your home too.  Incidentally, the children are very good helpers.


Pumpkin Sourdough Bread

Sourdough Pumpkin Muffins

Ingredients

  • 2 cups (456 g) pumpkin puree, canned or homemade (see note)
  • 1 cup (227 g) sourdough starter, unfed/discard (see note)
  • 1 cup (212 g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup neutral-flavored oil like canola or vegetable or melted butter or coconut oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (284 g) all-purpose or whole wheat flour (see note)
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt (decrease if using salted butter)
  • 1 cup (170 g) chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, sourdough starter, granulated sugar, oil, eggs and vanilla until well-combined.
  • Add the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, salt and chocolate chips (if using) and mix until just combined and no dry streaks remain. Don't over mix.
  • Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tins, filling the muffin cups 1/2 to 2/3 full. If desired, sprinkle a few regular or mini chocolate chips on top of the muffins.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes until the tops spring back lightly to the touch and/or a toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.

Notes

Pumpkin Puree: make sure to use single ingredient pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie filling. If using homemade pumpkin puree, you might want/need to drain excess liquid before using as homemade pumpkin puree tends to be more watery than canned pumpkin. 
Sourdough Starter: this recipe calls for unfed sourdough starter (also known as discard). I have not tried it using recently fed sourdough starter - my guess is that will work fine as well. 
Whole Wheat Flour: whole wheat flour works well in these muffins (as does 50/50 white flour and whole wheat flour). I have only ever used white whole wheat flour. Different varieties of whole wheat will produce different results (for instance, red whole wheat is a bit more dense and heavy in baked goods). 

 

Pumpkin Scones

 Pumpkin Scones Mix together in large bowl: 

1 ¼ cups flour
½ cup sugar
2 ½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice

Cut in:
½ cup very cold butter or ghee cut in small pieces, or grated

Add wet ingredients:
½ cup milk (cream, half and half, buttermilk, reconstituted powdered milk)
1 egg (2 tbsp egg powder + 2 tbsp water)
1 tsp extract (vanilla, lemon, almond, etc.)
1 cup pumpkin puree (can be reconstituted from powder) 

Combine with wooden spoon until completely mixed. Then choose one method: a. Turn out on floured counter and roll into 8” circle. With pizza cutter, cut into 8 wedges. Arrange on greased cooking sheet. b. Press into scones mold Bake at 400°F for about 20 minutes or until top springs back when lightly pressed. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with simple icing.

Pumpkin Breadsticks

Pumpkin Breadsticks 

In a bowl mix together:
1 Tbsp yeast
2 Tbsp sugar
3 Tbsp olive oil
1 cup warm water
Add dry ingredients:
2 cups flour
1/3 cup pumpkin powder

Stir together until a sticky mixture is formed. Pour out on floured counter adding more flour as you knead the dough until it is soft and pliable but not sticky. Place in oiled bowl, cover, and allow to rise for 30 minutes. Turn out on floured counter, punch down, flatten, and divide into 12 pieces. Roll each piece into a rope shape, place on a greased baking sheet, and cover with tea towel. Turn oven to 400°F and allow breadsticks to rest and rise slightly as oven preheats. Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown. If bottoms are still white, turn over and bake an additional 5 minutes until browned. Remove from oven and brush with butter. Sprinkle with coarse salt and crushed herbs of your choice.

1 tsp salt
2 large eggs
1 lg can (29 oz) or 3 cups pumpkin

6 cups flour
2 tsps baking soda
Milk Chocolate chips (2 cups or 12 oz. bag)

Cream butter, sugars, vanilla and salt well. Scrape down sides of the bowl. Add eggs and pumpkin. Beat well until the mixture is fluffy. Add spices. Mix. Add flour, soda and chocolate chips. Blend until well incorporated, but do not over-mix. Use a small ice cream or cookie scoop to form 1 inch balls of dough, and them 1 inch apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degree Fahrenheit for 12-16 min. Let rest for a minute or two and remove from tray to a cooling rack with a spatula. This makes a huge batch, so unless you have a large capacity mixer, you might want to cut the recipe in half.
