Filling Ingredients

Frosting Ingredients

Directions:

1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, dissolve your yeast in warmed milk for about 3 minutes.
2. Add in the pumpkin, butter, brown sugar, salt, eggs, flour, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Mix together.
3. When the dough starts to pull from the edge of the bowl, remove the dough and knead with your hands for about 5-10 minutes.
4. Spray a bowl with non-stick spray or drizzle with olive oil, making sure to coat the sides. Place the ball of dough in the bowl and cover with plastic wrap or a towel. Place in a warm spot to rise for about 45-60 minutes.
5. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
6. Sprinkle flour on the counter and roll the dough into a rectangle that is about ¼” thick and 16” wide x 22” long.
7. Coat the dough with melted butter making sure to completely cover.
8. Combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice. Sprinkle the mixture over the top of the dough, making sure to completely cover. **You don’t have to use all the mixture if you think it is too much.
9. Roll the dough from top to bottom (it should still be 22” long when this step is done).
10. Cut the roll into 1-inch slices and place them in a greased pan. You should have 12 slices. **If you have more, that is ok. I like to keep the slices consistent in size, so I end up tossing the end pieces.
11. Bake for 15 minutes. **You may need to adjust the baking time based on your oven.
12. While the rolls are baking, make the frosting. Combine all ingredients in a bowl until well mixed and there are no lumps.
13. Remove the rolls from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. When ready to serve, generously apply frosting to each roll.
