INGREDIENTS

  • FOR THE CINNAMON ROLL DOUGH:
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons instant dry yeast (1 package)
  • 3/4 cup oat milk (whole, 2% and almond will also work)
  • 3/4 cup LIBBY'S® 100% Pure Pumpkin
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted & cooled
  • FOR THE FILLING:
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened to room temperature (not melted)
  • 2/3 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
  • FOR THE PUMPKIN MASCARPONE ICING:
  • 8 ounces mascarpone cheese, room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon LIBBY'S® 100% Pure Pumpkin
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

MAKE IT

Step 1

Add the milk to a microwave safe bowl and heat for 45 seconds. (The temperature should be about approximately 100-110° F).

Step 2

Add in the honey and sprinkle the yeast on top. Let sit for about a minute and add the melted butter, room temperature egg, and pumpkin puree. Mix together until combined with a wooden spoon.

Step 3

In the bowl of an electric mixer with the paddle attachment, combine flour, pumpkin pie spice and salt. Mix on low briefly to combine. Add the pumpkin milk mixture and mix on low until a dough begins to form. About 2 minutes.

Step 4

Switch out the paddle attachment for the dough hook and knead the dough for about 5-6 minutes. The dough will be sticky.

Step 5

Use a spatula to transfer the dough into a greased large bowl. Cover loosely with a dish towel and let proof for 1 hour. The dough should double in size.

Step 6

Grease a 9X13 inch pan and line it with parchment paper.

Step 7

Once the dough has proofed, place it on a floured work surface and use a rolling pin to roll it into a roughly 12X16 inch rectangle.

Step 8

Use a small spatula to spread the room temperature butter onto the dough leaving about ½ border on the longer side.

Step 9

Sprinkle the brown sugar and pumpkin pie spice evenly over the top, pressing it lightly into the butter.

Step 10

Roll the dough starting from the shorter side and pinch the seam. Use a serrated knife to cut the dough in 12 equal size rolls. You will probably need to cut off the ends of the dough as they won’t be as filled with sugar.

Step 11

Place rolls cut side up into the prepared pan and cover loosely with a dish towel for 25 minutes to let the dough proof once more.

Step 12

Preheat the oven to 350° F. Bake for 25-28 minutes.

Step 13

While the rolls bake make the mascarpone icing. Use a stand or hand mixer to beat the ingredients together until smooth and fluffy.

Step 14

Remove the cinnamon rolls from the oven and let the cool in the pan for a few minutes. Use a spatula to top the rolls with mascarpone icing, sprinkle extra pumpkin pie spice and enjoy!
