Total Time: 55 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 rolls
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup Biscoff spread
- 1 egg
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, and ground cinnamon. Whisk together dry ingredients until well blended.
- In a separate bowl, mix pumpkin puree, melted butter, milk, and egg until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Gradually pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients, stirring until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. If dough seems too sticky, add a small amount of flour.
- Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for 3-4 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Roll out dough into a large rectangle approximately 12x16 inches, ensuring an even thickness of about 1/4 inch.
- Warm Biscoff spread slightly to make it more spreadable, then evenly distribute across the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Carefully roll the dough tightly from the long side, creating a log shape. Use a sharp knife or dental floss to cut into 12 equal rolls.
- Place rolls in a greased 9x13 inch baking pan, leaving slight space between each roll for rising.
- Cover rolls with a clean kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place for 30-45 minutes until they've doubled in size.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) while rolls are rising.
- Bake rolls for 22-25 minutes until golden brown and centers are cooked through.
- Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before serving. Optional: dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with cream cheese glaze.
Tips
- Temperature Matters: Ensure your ingredients are at room temperature for the best dough consistency and rise.
- Kneading Technique: Don't overwork the dough - gentle kneading creates tender rolls.
- Rising Hack: Place rolls in a warm, draft-free area like a slightly warmed oven (turned off) for optimal rising.
- Biscoff Spread Trick: Slightly warm the spread to make it easier to spread evenly across the dough.
- Cutting Precision: Use unflavored dental floss for clean, even roll cuts that don't squish the dough.
- Golden Brown Secret: Watch rolls closely in the last 5 minutes of baking to prevent over-browning.
- Cooling is Crucial: Let rolls rest 10 minutes after baking to set and develop full flavor.
