They give a nice texture. Maple syrup is also optional, but it adds a sweet touch. If you want more flavor, try adding a pinch of cloves. If you don’t have canned pumpkin, you can use fresh pumpkin. Just cook and mash it until smooth. For a dairy-free version, swap the milk with almond or oat milk. If you want to skip the cinnamon rolls, you can use bread or croissants instead. 1.

For a pretty look, sprinkle some cinnamon and chopped pecans before serving. Enjoy! To get the best texture, use fresh ingredients. Canned pumpkin puree works well, but ensure it is pure and smooth.

For added crunch, fold in chopped pecans gently. They add a nice contrast to the soft rolls. One common mistake is overmixing the batter. This can make your bake dense. Mix just until combined. Another mistake is underbaking. If the center is not set, your pumpkin roll bake will be too gooey. Ensure you bake until the top is golden brown and the center is firm. Lastly, don't skip cooling. Let it sit for 10 minutes before serving. This helps the flavors meld together. Serve this treat warm for the best taste. Drizzle maple syrup over the top right before serving.

Ingredients
  

2 cups canned pumpkin puree

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon salt

3 large eggs

1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cans of refrigerated cinnamon roll dough

1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)

1/2 cup maple syrup (for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). While the oven heats, lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish to prevent sticking.

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.

      Add the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract to the pumpkin mixture. Continue whisking until everything is fully combined and free of lumps.

        Open the two cans of refrigerated cinnamon roll dough. Separate the rolls and cut each roll into quarters to create bite-sized pieces.

          Carefully toss the cinnamon roll pieces into the pumpkin mixture, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated. If you’re using them, fold in the chopped pecans gently at this stage.

            Transfer the entire mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula to create a uniform layer.

              Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when the center is set and the top has turned a light golden brown.

                Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for approximately 10 minutes. Drizzle maple syrup over the top before serving for a sweet finish.

                  Serve warm, with an optional dollop of whipped cream on top to elevate the experience!
