  • Total Time: 1 hour 40 minutes
  • Yield: 9 rolls 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup warm milk
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • For the glaze: 1 cup powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Activate yeast in warm milk with a teaspoon of sugar and let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. In a large bowl, combine flour, remaining sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. Add melted butter, pumpkin puree, egg, and activated yeast mixture. Mix until a soft dough forms.
  4. Knead dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth. Let rise in a greased bowl covered with a damp towel for 1 hour, until doubled.
