Ingredients

Dough

  • 3/4 cup Sugar
  • 1.5 sticks Unsalted Butter (3/4 cup Land O'Lakes Unsalted Butter)
  • 3 cups Milk (Scalded)
  • 1 cup Pumpkin Puree
  • 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon Salt
  • 1 tablespoon Yeast (Instant or 2 tbsp regular yeast)
  • 4 eggs Eggs
  • 8-10 cups Flour (Adjust as needed for dough consistency)
  • 1/2 cup Butter (Softened, for rolling out rolls)

Instructions 

  • Heat milk until frothy, then remove from heat and stir in sugar, butter, pumpkin, cinnamon, and salt. Cool to lukewarm.
  • Activate yeast in the mixture, then add eggs and stir well. Combine with flour to form a soft, slightly sticky dough. Let rise for 1 hour.
  • Turn dough onto floured surface, divide, and roll each portion to 1/2 inch thickness. Butter, fold, and cut into strips or shape into knots. Let rise until doubled, about 1-2 hours.
  • Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 18-20 minutes until golden brown. Serve warm.

Notes

For softer rolls, ensure proper rising time and do not over-flour during shaping.
