    List of Ingredients




    Maple-Nutmeg Pumpkin Rolls


    1/4 cup warm water
    2 1/2 tsp dry yeast (1 envelope)
    1/4 cup all-purpose flour
    1 Tbs sugar
    1/2 cup milk
    2 Tbs butter
    3/4 cup canned solid pack pumpkin
    1/4 cup pure maple syrup
    2 large eggs
    1 tsp salt
    3/4 tsp ground nutmeg
    1/4 cup plus 1 Tbs sugar
    4 cups (approx.) all-purpose flour

    Recipe




    For sponge:

    Dissolve yeast in warm water in large mixer bowl.

    Add 1/4 cup flour and 1 Tbs sugar.

    Mix together, cover with plastic, and let rise in warm place 45 minutes or until very foamy.

    Recipe

    For bread (when sponge is almost ready): bring milk and butter just to a simmer, then remove from heat and stir to melt butter.

    Cool 10 minutes.

    Into milk and butter, whisk in pumpkin, syrup, eggs, salt, nutmeg, and 1/4 cup plus 1 Tbs sugar.

    Whisk pumpkin mixture into the sponge.

    Using mixer with dough hook, mix in flour, 1 cup at a time, until dough forms.

    Mix until smooth and elastic, adding more flour if sticky, about 5 minutes.

    Cover bowl with plastic and a clean kitchen towel; let dough rise in a warm, draft-free area until doubled in volume, about 1 hour 30 mins.

    When dough has risen, grease two heavy baking sheets.

    Punch dough down and transfer to a floured surface.

    Knead until smooth.

    Divide dough into 18 equal pieces.

    Shape each piece into a ball or bowknot and arrange on prepared baking sheets, spacing two inches apart.

    Cover with clean kitchen towels and let rise until doubled - about 45 minutes.

    Preheat oven to 425 deg F.

    Bake rolls until golden brown, about 15 minutes.

    Transfer to racks and cool slightly, then serve.

    Makes 18 rolls.
