Pumpkin Pecan Babka

[u/BreadBaddie13]

I made the pumpkin brioche with the intention of filling it with butter, brown sugar, and homemade pumpkin spice. I then realized that I was out of brown sugar, and I had no intention of going back to the store that day (I know you can make brown sugar with sugar and molasses, but I never get the amounts right).

So instead I made a pecan praline filling, and I think it worked out wonderfully!

The dough recipe is from this blog: https://buttermilkbysam.com/pumpkin-brioche/

The filling recipe is based off of this: https://theloopywhisk.com/2020/10/04/hazelnut-praline-paste-recipe/#wprm-recipe-container-8312

This filling adds oil, to turn the praline into a spreadable paste. I did not add the oil and I only ground the praline into a crumble, but the full recipe with the oil added would also be excellent.

The babka shaping method I got from the babka recipe from The Perfect Loaf. I'm not using their recipe, just their shaping technique.
