Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls That Will Blow Your Mind
Running out of ideas on how to incorporate pumpkin into your Fall diet? Well you have come to the right place. We took a simple American classic—prepared cinnamon rolls—and mashed it together with another one of our nation's seasonal staples: pumpkin. There are some pre-made versions or other recipes out there, but us Spoonies like to take the easiest way to the most authentic flavor. This recipe for pumpkin cinnamon rolls is extremely simple to make, and the added step of incorporating pumpkin puree yourself sure is worth it. This dish will not only warm your hearts, but is the perfect Fall confection to have at your next brunch alongside perhaps some apple cider mimosas, or can be served up warm at the end of a turkey dinner.

This recipe took a few times to master, but the result is a glorious and moist roll packed with flavor. However, feel free to take some of your own variations or play with the ingredients a bit to customize it to your own flavor. Sometimes we even like to forego the frosting included in the package and make our own cream cheese frosting!
