3. How to Make Brown Butter Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls – Step-by-Step

Prepare the Dough

In a small bowl, combine warm milk and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy. Meanwhile, brown the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until it turns golden and emits a nutty aroma. Set it aside to cool slightly.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Add the eggs, cooled browned butter, pumpkin puree, and the yeast mixture. Mix until a sticky dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rise in a warm spot for 1 to 1.5 hours or until doubled in size.

Make the Filling

In a small bowl, mix softened butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon until well combined. Set aside.

Assemble the Rolls

Once the dough has doubled, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle about 16×12 inches. Spread the pumpkin cinnamon filling evenly over the dough. If desired, sprinkle chopped nuts for added crunch.

Carefully roll the dough tightly from one long edge to the other. Cut the rolled dough into 12 equal slices and place them in a greased baking dish.

Bake to Perfection

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Cover the cinnamon rolls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise for another 20-30 minutes. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and fragrant. While baking, prepare your favorite glaze or cream cheese frosting to drizzle over the warm rolls.

4. Storage Tips for Brown Butter Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls

For leftovers, store the cinnamon rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To enjoy later, reheat in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds or in a low oven until warm.
