- 30 g granulated sugar
- 6 g active dry yeast
- 260 g all-purpose flour
- 1 large egg
- 85 ml pumpkin puree
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (recipe below)
- 15 ml vegetable oil or softened unsalted butter
Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix: (makes more than you need for the recipe)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
- ⅛ teaspoon ground all-spice
Filling:
- ¼ C light or dark brown sugar packed

- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter softened, room temperature
Cream Cheese Icing:
- ¼ C cream cheese softened, room temperature

Instructions
Make the dough:
- In a bowl, combine the warm milk, 1 tablespoon sugar, and yeast. Give it a stir and let the yeast activate, about 5 minutes.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the flour, egg, pumpkin puree, remaining 1 tablespoon sugar and pumpkin pie spice.
- Add the yeast to the flour mixture and turn on the mixer on low.
- The dough will be wet. Knead the dough together until it comes together. At about 3-4 minutes in, add in the vegetable oil/butter and continue kneading. (You may need to finish kneading by hand until smooth).
- Place the dough into a lightly greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap or a damp cloth. Leave in a warm location for 60-90 minutes, depending on how warm your kitchen is.
Pumpkin pie spice mix:
- Combine the spices in a small bowl and mix well.
- Store in an airtight container.
Make the filling:
- In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice. Give it a stir to incorporate.
Make the rolls:
- When the dough has doubled in size, transfer it to a work surface lightly dusted with flour. With a rolling pin, roll out the dough into a rectangle about 10" by 8" long.
- Spread softened butter over the entire surface of the dough.
- Sprinkle the brown sugar filling on top of the butter.
- Working from the bottom, roll it up into a long log, and divide into 6 even pieces.
- Lightly grease a 9" by 6" oven-safe baking pan.
- Place the pieces of dough cut side up (swirl facing the top) into the baking pan.
- Lightly cover with a cloth/plastic wrap until puffy and slightly larger in size, about 20-30 minutes.
- Towards the end of the proofing time, preheat oven to 350°F/177°C.
- Bake at 350°F/177°C for approximately 20-22 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted registers 190°F.
- Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Make the icing:
- In a stand mixer bowl, beat the cream cheese until softened. Then add ½ teaspoon vanilla extract and about ½ C sifted powdered sugar. If the consistency is too thick, add a little milk to loosen. If it's too runny, add a little more powdered sugar.
- Spread the icing over the cooled buns.
- Serve with additional dusting of pumpkin pie spice if you wish. Best served the same day.
