Instead of making cinnamon rolls, surprise your guests with this delicious and festive pull apart bread! We used pre-mixed pumpkin pie spice, but feel free to play around with different spice combinations.

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. In a bowl of the Instant Stand Mixer fitted with the dough hook, add the whole milk, sugar, and then the yeast. Allow to sit for 3-4 Minutes for the yeast to bloom.
  2. Mix in the melted butter, pumpkin puree, salt, and egg.
  3. Slowly incorporate the flour one cup at a time until a sticky, pliable dough forms. Beat on level 8 for 5-7 Minutes to activate the gluten. Add a few extra tablespoons of flour as needed if the dough is too sticky.
  4. Butter a large mixing bowl and place in the dough. Cover with a dishtowel and set in a warm place until risen, about 1- 1 ½ Hours. The dough is done when a light poke stays indented and does not spring back.
