Instructions

  1. Activate the yeast by combining warm water and yeast in a bowl, letting it sit for about five minutes.
  2. In a large bowl, mix granulated sugar, browned butter, egg, dry milk powder, salt, pumpkin puree, and pumpkin pie spice. Add the yeast mixture.
  3. Gradually incorporate flour until a soft dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for about five minutes until smooth.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in size (about one hour).
  5. Prepare the filling by mixing brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice in a small bowl.
  6. Roll out the risen dough into a rectangle and spread with browned butter. Sprinkle with the filling mixture.
  7. Roll up tightly from one long edge and cut into twelve even pieces. Arrange cut-side up in a greased baking dish.
  8. Cover again and let rise for another hour until puffy.
  9. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 25-27 minutes until golden brown.
  10. For frosting, beat softened cream cheese, browned butter, vanilla extract, heavy cream, and confectioners’ sugar until smooth. Frost rolls after they cool slightly.
