½ jap (kent) pumpkin

½ cup milk

2 tbsp Morlife Certified Organic Chia Seeds

2 tbsp pepitas

1 tsp salt

4) Turn dough onto floured surface and shape into a large ball (optional to portion in single serve rolls). Place on a lined baking tray, brush with milk and top with the rest of the pepitas (1 tbsp) and chia seeds (1 tbsp).

Bake in the hot oven for approximately 40 minutes to an hour. To check if it’s cooked, tap the surface and it should sound hollow or use the skewer test method
