Yield: 25 servings

1 tb Active dry yeast;
1/4 c Warm water
1 c Milk; skim
1/4 c Vegetable oil;
2 tb Sugar
1/2 ts Salt
5 c Whole wheat flour;
(5 1/2 c)
16 oz Pumpkin; canned
1 ts Cinnamon
1/2 ts Nutmeg
1/4 ts Cloves
1/2 c Dark raisins or currents;
2 tb Margarine
2 tb Honey;

Soften yeast in the water. Combine the milk, oil, and salt in a
large bowl with 2 cups of the flour. Add yeast mixture, pumpkin,
cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and raisins. Mix well. Stir in 3 more cups
of flour. Beat. Transfer to an oiled bowl, cover with damp towel, and
let raise in in a warm place until doubled in bulk (about 1 hour).
Punch down dough and turn onto a lightly flour surface and knead in
the remaining flour to make a smooth elastic dough, about 5 minutes.
Melt the margarine and honey together in a saucepan. Break off
2-inch of the dough and shape into balls. Dip the honey mixture.
Place in an oiled 10-inch tube pan. Cover and let raise until doubled
(about 1 hour). Bake in a 350 F oven for 50 to 60 minutes. Cool 10
minutes before removing from the pan. Serve warm.
