Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. In a large bowl, mix 3 cups self-raising flour with 1 tsp salt. Stir in 1 cup mashed roasted pumpkin and 3/4 cup grated roasted beetroot until evenly combined.
  2. Step 2: Gradually add 1 cup cold water while stirring to form a soft but not sticky dough.
  3. Step 3: Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead gently for 1-2 minutes. Shape into a round loaf about 7 inches in diameter and place on a baking tray lined with parchment.
  4. Step 4: Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes until the crust is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
  5. Step 5: Let cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm slices with 1 cup bush tomato chutney for a sweet and tangy contrast.
