| Comments: The flavor of these biscuit-like rolls will remind you of pumpkin pie. The perfect dinner roll to serve with your Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. |
Ingredients:  1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/8 teaspoon salt 3/4 cup canned 100% pumpkin 3 tablespoons cooking oil 2 tablespoons brown sugar 2 teaspoons granulated sugar 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
| Instructions: 1. In a medium mixing bowl combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, and salt. 2. In a small mixing bowl combine the pumpkin, oil, and brown sugar. Add pumpkin mixture to dry mixture, stirring with a fork until combined. Form into a ball. 3. Line a large baking sheet with foil. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead dough gently for 10 to 12 strokes. Divide dough in half. Roll each half to a 10-inch circle. Cut each circle into 8 wedges. To shape, begin at the wide end of each wedge and loosely roll toward the point. Place point sides down, about 2 inches apart, on the prepared baking sheet. Curve ends of rolls slightly. 4. Combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over crescents. Bake in a 400 degree F (200 C) oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. Makes 16 rolls. Make-Ahead Tip: Prepare, bake, and cool rolls. Freeze in a freezer container or bag up to 1 month. Wrap frozen rolls in foil and thaw at room temperature for 2 hours; reheat in a 375 degree F (190 C) oven for 3 to 5 minutes. |
