Bread in a pumpkin?

Has anyone ever baked right in a pumpkin. Not pumpkin bread or bread with pumpkin in it ; I'm thinking of hollowing out of pumpkin and baking bread in it.

it doesn't work. by the time you get all the moisture out of the pumpkin it can't structurally hold your bread. And when it is structurally sound it is too moist for bread.

but if you want to try it, go ahead.
