Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 lb pumpkin around ½ a medium pumpkin - choose a sweet pumpkin variety for this recipe
  • 5 tbsp olive oil
  • 5 cups flour
  • 2 tbsp yeast
  • 1 tsp salt plus more for garnishing
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • ½ large yellow bell pepper sliced
  • ½ large red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 large red onion sliced
  • ½ cup mushrooms sliced
  • ½ cup zucchini sliced
  • fresh chives small bunch
  • 1 tbsp dried thyme

Instructions

  1. Cut the pumpkin in half just beside the stem, then remove the seeds and cut it in half once again. You can now peel it using a vegetable peeler, and proceed to cut into small, bite-sized pieces.
  2. Drizzle the pumpkin with 1 tbsp olive oil and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes at 180 degrees C/350 F, until fully softened.
  3. Transfer it to a blender or food processor and blend until a purée forms.
  4. Mix together the flour, salt and yeast. In a different bowl, combine water, the pumpkin purée, and maple syrup. Then, add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until thoroughly combined. At the end, mix in 2 tbsp olive oil.
  5. Transfer the dough to a large baking tray lined with parchment paper, and stretch into a large rectangle. Cover with cling film and allow to rise at room temperature for 3-4 hours, until roughly doubled in size.
  6. Drizzle 2 tbsp more olive oil on the focaccia and dimple the dough using your fingers by pressing them almost all the way through. Allow to rise for 10-15 minutes more.
  7. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C/350 F.
  8. Arrange the bell peppers, red onion, mushrooms, zucchini and fresh chives on the focaccia. Sprinkle with sea salt and dried thyme.
  9. Bake for 22-25 minutes, until crispy on the outside and golden brown.
