    Ingredients 
     

    • 4 cups all-purpose flour
    • tsp instant yeast
    • 2 Tbsp sugar
    • tsp salt
    • 1 cup pumpkin puree canned or homemade
    • ¾ cup milk
    • 3 Tbsp butter
    • 1 egg for dough
    • 1 egg for egg wash

    Instructions
     

    • In a large bowl, whisk together 4 cups flour, 1½ tsp instant yeast, 2 Tbsp sugar, and 1½ tsp salt until well combined.
    • Warm ¾ cup milk and 3 Tbsp butter in the microwave for 45-60 seconds until butter melts and mixture is lukewarm (not hot). Stir in 1 cup pumpkin puree and 1 egg until smooth.
    • Pour the pumpkin mixture into the flour mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms, about 1 minute.
    • Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 6-8 minutes until smooth and elastic. The dough will feel slightly sticky but should pull away from your hands cleanly.
    • Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning once to coat all sides. Cover with a damp towel and let rise in a warm place for 1½ to 2 hours until doubled in size.
    • Punch down the risen dough and divide into 9 equal pieces (about 3 oz each). Shape each piece into a ball by pulling the edges toward the center, pinching to seal, then rolling gently between your palms until smooth.
    • Arrange balls in a greased 9×9 inch baking dish, leaving slight space between each. Cover and let rise for 45-60 minutes until puffy and touching each other.
    • Preheat oven to 375°F. Beat together 1 egg and 1 Tbsp water, then brush over the tops of the rolls for a glossy finish.
    • Bake for 18-22 minutes until tops are deep golden brown and internal temperature reaches 190°F. Cool in pan for 5 minutes before serving.
