  • Total Time: 2 hours
  • Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup warm milk
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  1. In a warm bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and a teaspoon of sugar. Let sit until frothy, about 5 minutes.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, remaining sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. Add pumpkin puree, melted butter, egg, and yeast mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix until a soft dough forms.
  4. Knead dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  5. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour until doubled in size.
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Punch down the dough and roll into a rectangle on a floured surface.
  7. Roll up the dough tightly, seal the edges, and place in a greased baking dish.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. Let cool slightly and dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

  • Make sure the milk is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast properly.
  • You can add chopped nuts or raisins inside the roll for extra flavor.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
