Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls

You don’t need fall to crave creamy, lush squash and want to use it for everything, but whenever it’s fall, make the most of it! Your home will smell good when these delicious rolls are baked to perfection. Be aware, though, that the aroma will also attract neighbors—better to make some extra bucks. Another warning: Once you know how to make cinnamon pumpkin rolls, you might just want to stay home and bake delicious fall treats all day long!

This recipe is based on traditional cinnamon rolls, but with the magic of pumpkin and fall spices added. These hearty rolls feature pumpkin in the dough as well as in the filling that wraps around the plump, fluffy dough. Then, a rich cream cheese glaze is covered on top, effectively sending your taste buds to the top! Grab some milk, your favorite book, and close the doors and windows if you don’t want half the neighbors to show up and ask “what’s up?”

Do I need a stand mixer to make pumpkin cinnamon rolls?

You can knead the dough by hand! Stir with a spoon until you can’t stir any more. Then knead with your hands. Continue kneading until all the flour is incorporated and/or the dough is soft to the touch and only slightly sticky. It’s a bit of a workout, but it’s worth it!

How soft should the butter be?

Butter should be room temperature and slippery to the touch. If you’re softening butter in the microwave, be sure to work in small increments so you don’t end up with any pools of melted butter.

What temperature should the milk be?

The milk should be warm to the touch (between 100 and 110 degrees). You can use up to 1 percent whole milk, but not skim milk.

Can a low-sodium diet reduce salt?

Reducing salt will not affect the rise. The only thing it will affect is the taste. You can also swap out the salted butter for unsalted butter to further reduce the sodium content.
