Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Dough
- In a bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm milk. Add sugar, melted butter, pumpkin puree, egg, and spices, mixing well. Gradually add the flour and salt until you form a dough.
Knead the Dough
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead it for about 5-7 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic. Place it in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour.
Roll Out the Dough
- Once the dough has doubled in size, punch it down and roll it out into a rectangle.
Fill with Cinnamon and Sugar
- Spread softened butter on top of the dough, then sprinkle a mixture of sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg across the surface.
Shape the Rolls
- Starting from one long side, carefully roll the dough into a log. Slice it into individual rolls and place them in a greased baking dish.
Second Rise
- Cover the rolls again and let them rise for another 30 minutes until puffy.
Bake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for about 20-25 minutes or until they are golden brown.
Prepare Frosting
- While the rolls are baking, make the frosting by mixing powdered sugar, softened butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Glaze and Serve
- Once the rolls are out of the oven, drizzle the frosting over the warm rolls and serve immediately!
Notes
Use fresh pumpkin for a richer flavor. Don’t rush the rising process—be patient!
