Ingredients
Dough:
  • 1 package instant dry yeast (2 and ¼ teaspoons)
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • ½ cup water
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter, unsalted
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 and ¾ cups all-purpose flour, or as needed
Filling:
  • 3 tablespoon butter, melted
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
Cream cheese glaze:
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract:
Instructions
  1. To make dough: in a large bowl, mix the flour, the sugar, salt, and yeast together until evenly dispersed. Set aside. In a small microwavable bowl, heat the water, milk, and butter together in the microwave until the butter is melted. Stir the butter mixture into the flour mixture. Add the egg and knead with stand mixer for 4-5 minutes or until the dough is no longer sticky. Form the dough into a ball and transfer it to a lightly greased bowl. Cover the dough loosely with plastic wrap, a paper towel, or aluminum foil and let sit in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour
  2. While the dough is rested, stir together pumpkin puree, brown sugar and cinnamon to make the filling
  3. Then on a flat lightly floured surface or a silicone baking mat roll the dough into a rectangle shape about 14 by 9 inches in size. Spread the ¼ cup of very soft butter over the rectangle and sprinkle the pumpkin filling over top, leaving an border of about ½ inch on each side.
  4. Then starting at the short edge of the rectangle, roll the dough into a roll and pinch the side closed.
  5. Using unflavored dental floss or a very sharp knife cut the roll into about 8-10 slices, each about 1 inch thick.
  6. Line a 9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, or lightly grease a 9 inch pie plate and place the rolls inside. Allow to rise for about 1 hour in a warm
  7. Then preheat the oven to 375 degrees F, and bake the rolls about 18-20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown on top
  8. To make cream cheese glaze:
  9. In a separate bowl, mix together cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beat until thoroughly combined
  10. Remove pan from oven and immediately brush each roll with cream cheese glaze
  11. Serve
