I love Pumpernickel bread, but I prefer it to be round because I dig out the center & fill with spinach dip. What type of pan do you suggest I use? 🙂
I'm making some right now. I'm just doing one loaf because that's all the molasses I have
😀
I’ve been trying to hack the bread they used to serve at Ruby Tuesday (and later just the dark brown croutons.) It’s like this but deeper. Might be some black cocoa and some brown.
Oh my gosh that looks amazing! I love pumpernickel bread. Thank you for sharing your recipe 🩷
Hi I watched your pretzel recipe is it really necceray to leave the dough overnight
Looks yummy 😋
Thank you for the recipe Gemma! My daughter and I use to have regular dates at the outback restaurant for blooming onion, cheesy flies and this delicious bread with their whipped butter. It was heaven for us! Now I can make it at home because of you. Thank you😁❤️
Please make a video greek yougert
As an Aussie who loves the brown bread from cheesecake factory I'm so happy about this recipe 🥹 had no idea it was called pumpernickel tbh
Gemma plz make caramelized white chocolate
I went to the Cheesecake Factory and always have pumpernickel bread! Glad to see you make it homemade and I want to try it too
Beautiful bread. Looks delicious.

I've been looking for a great recipe for pumpernickel! Thanks!!
I made your Christmas pudding for my "spa lady" who's from Ireland (and for me, not gonna lie!) and she loved it.
I love pumpernickel! I think I'll make mine as mini loaves, so I can easily share them with my neighbors. Thanks, as always!
Thank you for this lovely recipe ❤
So that's why I always taste chocolate when I have pumpernickel. My mother thinks I'm imagining it.
I’m curious if there is a reason for all purpose flour instead of bread flour? Can I use bread flour instead?
I love eating this bread. Thanks so much!
Thank you Gemma for sharing this amazing recipe with us I am so grateful ❤❤🎉🎉
Oh I'm excited to make this! And I even have everything on hand – I like to add a little dark rye to my sourdough loaves. Thank you for the recipe!
Can we reduce the yeast and do an overnight rest in the fridge?
