-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 cup pumpkin puree
2 tablespoons light brown sugar -- packed
1 large egg
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons butter -- softened
2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1/2 cup lukewarm water -- about 90F
3 cups all-purpose flour -- plus more, to 3 1/2, as needed
1 egg white
1 teaspoon water
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped roasted pumpkin seeds -- or pepitas
In a small bowl, mix the pumpkin with the brown sugar, egg, salt, and
soft butter.
In a large bowl, combine the lukewarm water and yeast. Let stand for 5 minutes.
Add the pumpkin mixture and 2 cups of the flour to the yeast mixture.
Mix to blend thoroughly. Add another 1 1/2 cups of flour to the
mixture. Knead on a floured surface for 10 minutes, until smooth and
elastic, adding small amounts of flour, as needed, to keep the dough
from sticking.
Butter a large bowl. Gather the dough into a ball and place in the
bowl. Turn to coat all sides with butter. Cover tightly with plastic
wrap and let rise in a warm, draft-free place for 1 to 1 1/2 hours,
or until doubled in bulk.
Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
Divide the dough into 36 pieces, roughly 7/8 ounce each. Shape the
dough pieces into small balls and put 3 in each muffin cup.
Cover the muffin tin with a tea towel and let the rolls rise in a
warm, draft-free place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in bulk.
Heat the oven to 375F.
Whisk an egg white with 1 teaspoon of water. Gently brush the tops of
the rolls. Sprinkle with the chopped pumpkin seeds.
Bake the rolls for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown. The rolls
will sound hollow when thumped on the bottom. The internal
temperature should be around 195F to 200F on an instant read
thermometer inserted into the center of a roll.
Makes 1 dozen pumpkin rolls.
