Pumpkin dinner rolls

So...its the season of pumpkin again. Not that I love pumpkin dishes but the gourds themselves look very nice with their bright color and all. So when I came across this dish, I had to make it and share it.
This Thanksgiving add a little extra on top of all the extras to your dinner party.

The looks of it is exceptional. I loved them and so did everyone else.

Pumpkin Dinner Rolls (Dinner rolls with pumpkin)
Pumpkin dinner rolls

Ingredients:

  1. 1 package active yeast
  2. 1/2 cup water
  3. 1/2 cup butter
  4. 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  5. 2 eggs + 1 egg for glazing
  6. 1/4 cup brown sugar +2 teaspoon white sigar
  7. 3-3.5 cups of all purpose flour
  8. pinch of salt
In a bowl warm 1/2 cup water and add the yeast and the white sugar and let it froth for 10 minutes. Beat the eggs and add the rest of the ingredients + 3 cups flour (Add more as needed depending on how watery you pumpkin puree is)

Apply oil to the inside of a bowl and set the dough in it covered for 60-90 minutes to raise. (Th weather here is pretty cold, so I heated my oven for 170 degrees for 3 minutes and set the bowl inside for 60 minutes.)

Take the dough out and knead it for 3-5 minutes. Divide it into 12-15 equal parts and knead each one a bit and set them about 2-3 inches apart on a baking sheet and cover and let rise for 45 minutes.

To get the pumpkin shape take a roll and cut 8 slits in it leaving about an inch of dough intact in the center. This looks like a flower. Add a cashew to the center to represent the pumpkin steam.

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Beat the remaining egg with 1 tablespoon milk and brush it on the pumkins and bake for 20-25 minutes. Enjoy cute little pumpkin dinner rools
