Ingredients

For the rolls:

  • 4 c. flour
  • 3 teaspoons fast action yeast
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoons dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoons dried sage
  • 4 teaspoons brown sugar packed
  • 3 teaspoons butter softened
  • 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 3/4 c. canned pumpkin puree
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 c. whole milk

For the topping:

  • 3 teaspoons salted butter melted
  • 1 teaspoons sea salt

Instructions

  • Place the milk in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it begins to steam. Remove from heat and let cool 2-3 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the flour, salt, yeast, rosemary, and sage in a large bowl.
  • Add the brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon to the flour mixture and mix until blended.
  • Stir in the pumpkin puree, eggs, and half of the milk.
  • Add in the remaining milk, a little at a time, until a sticky dough forms.
  • Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 5 minutes. The dough should be smooth and stretchy.
  • Form the dough into a ball, place into a bowl sprayed with cooking spray, and cover with plastic wrap. Let the dough rise in a warm place until it doubles in size, about 1 hour. Alternatively, you can place the dough in the refrigerator over night, just remove and bring the dough to room temperature before continuing on.
  • Butter a 9 x 13 inch baking dish.
  • Once the dough has rise, turn onto a floured surface and punch it down.
  • Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a tight, smooth ball.
  • Place the rolls into the prepared pan and cover with plastic wrap. Let the rolls rise in a warm place until the sides of the rolls are touching, about 45 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Bake the rolls for 15 minutes or until the are browned on top.
  • Remove from the oven and cool for 5 minutes.
  • Brush the tops of the rolls with the melted butter and sprinkle with the sea salt.
  • Serve with butter or cinnamon honey butter.
