  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1 egg
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Instructions

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. Add pumpkin puree, melted butter, egg, and the yeast mixture to the dry ingredients; mix until a dough forms.
  4. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.
  5. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  6. Roll out the dough into a rectangle, spread with softened butter, and sprinkle with brown sugar and pecans.
  7. Roll the dough tightly and cut into rolls.
  8. Place rolls in a greased baking dish, cover, and refrigerate overnight.

  10. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • For a sweeter roll, add a cream cheese frosting on top.
  • These rolls can be frozen before baking; just thaw and bake when ready.
  • Make sure the milk is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast properly.
