Add 400 ml of water to the Thermomix. Cut the pumpkin into pieces and cook in the steamer basket for about 10 minutes (Varoma setting, speed 2). Collect the cooking liquid, then puree the pumpkin pieces and let cool slightly. Knead the flour, salt, agave syrup, water, yeast, and pumpkin puree for 3 minutes in dough mode. Add a little more flour if necessary to create a nice, non-sticky yeast dough. Let the dough rise for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven and bake the bread on the middle rack at 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit) for 40 minutes. Tip: For even more fluffiness, you can place an ovenproof dish filled with water in the oven after placing the bread in the oven and quickly close the door.
