What better way to entice your kids with bright orange bread than this healthy Pumpkin Carrot Loaf Bread in the morning for breakfast? It is a nice sweet bread on its own without any spread to go with, but I reckon you should bring it up a notch by making it into French Toast served with some strawberry jam for that extra special weekend brunch.

Cooking Instructions
1.
In a blender, combine the Pumpkins (3/4 cup) together with Carrot Juice (1/2 cup) and blend together.
2.
Place the pumpkin and carrot juice mixture, Egg (1), Milk Powder (2 Tbsp), Granulated Sugar (2 Tbsp), Bread Flour (2 1/3 cups), Instant Dry Yeast (1 tsp), and Salted Butter (2 Tbsp) into a breadmaker.
3.
Set your breadmaker to "sweet bread", weight to "500g", and crust to "light setting" to start the machine. The machine will start to operate and knead the dough
4.
Let the machine run until the timer indicator reaches around 2 hours and 40 minutes. The machine will give a light beep sound which indicates to us that it is time to add our melon seeds.
5.
Optionally (but I highly recommend) when the timer indicator reaches around the 1 hour 25 minute mark, take out your bread dough and also the machine's dough hook.
6.
Quickly, press the dough onto a clean surface to remove all the air bubbles out and roll it into a nice smooth ball.
7.
Carefully put the dough back into the pan and let the dough proof for another 40 minutes.
8.
Then, for that perfect look, brush a lightly beaten Egg (1) mixed with 1 Tbsp water and sprinkle the Melon Seeds (1/2 cup).
9.
Let the machine run its thing until it finishes the setting. Once baked, remove the bread from the tin immediately and let it cool on a wire rack while you brush some melted butter over the top for a nice shiny finish.
10.
Slice it up and serve.
Author's Notes
If you are baking it in the oven, I recommend using a 450g of bread tin and baking it in the oven at 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) for around 35-40 minutes
