Ingredients

For the Dough:

  • 2 1/2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup warm milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

For the Filling:

  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

For the Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tbsp milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Prepare the Dough:

  • In a small bowl, mix the warm milk with the yeast and a pinch of sugar. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, granulated sugar, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  • Add the pumpkin puree, melted butter, egg, vanilla extract, and the yeast mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.
  • Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead gently for a few minutes until smooth. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.

Prepare the Filling:

  • Mix the brown sugar, melted butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a small bowl until well combined.

Assemble the Rolls:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Spread the filling mixture evenly over the dough.
  • Cut the log into 12 equal pieces and place them in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.

Bake the Rolls:

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.

Prepare the Glaze:

  • While the rolls are baking, mix the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk if needed.
  • Once the rolls are out of the oven and slightly cooled, drizzle the glaze over the top.
