25 g yeast
2 1/2 dl lukewarm water
1 tsp salt
1 tsp honey
2 tbsp olive oil
200 g white whole wheat flour
150 g squash
ca 300 g flour
100 g shredded mozzarella

Dissolve the yeast in the water. Add salt, honey, oil, white whole wheat flour and grated squash. Let sit 5 minutes and add the regular flour a bit at a time.

Knead well and let rise under a damp towel for 45 minutes.

Punch the dough down, roll into a long loaf, sprinkle with cheese and cut the loaf into three long strips that are still together at one end. Braid the bread and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Let rise until doubled in side (about 45 minutes.)

Bake at 200 C for 30 minutes and enjoy warm. It can also be frozen and heated up before serving.
