Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup warm milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 large egg
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 packet quick-rise yeast (2 1/4 tsp)
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- Powdered sugar for frosting
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
Instructions
- Warm the milk until comfortable; mix with yeast and let froth.
- Combine melted butter, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, and egg in the yeast mixture.
- Gradually stir in flour and salt until a sticky dough forms.
- Knead on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover it, and let rise for about one hour until doubled in size.
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle, spread with butter, sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon, then roll tightly.
- Cut into equal pieces and place in a greased baking dish; let rise for another 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C); bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
- Whip together cream cheese and powdered sugar for frosting and spread over warm rolls.
Notes
- Substitute applesauce for pumpkin puree for a fruity twist.
- Add nuts or chocolate chips to the filling for extra flavor.
- For a lighter glaze, mix powdered sugar with a bit of milk instead of cream cheese.
