  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • Orange food coloring (gel or liquid)
 

Instructions

  1.  Warm milk slightly and melt butter to about 110 degrees.  Too hot or too cold of this will kill the yeast. Mix with sugar and yeast
  2. In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add milk/yeast mixture and egg. Mix until a soft dough forms
  3. Knead 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic, adding more flour if necessary.
  4. Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 10 minutes
  5. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon for filling.
  6. Roll dough into a 12×18-inch rectangle. Spread a thin layer of butter on the top surface
  7. Spread filling evenly over the surface.
  8. Roll dough tightly from the long edge into a log.
  9. Slice into 12 rolls and tie each roll gently with kitchen twine in several sections (like a loose “x” or vertical lines). Do not tie to tight as the cinnamon rolls will expand
  10. Allow cinnamon rolls to expand for 1.5 hours or until doubled in size
  11. Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
  12. Bake rolls 25–30 minutes, until golden brown. Cool slightly
  13. Remove twine from the rolls by cutting it off gently
  14. Whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla together until smooth. Add orange food coloring until you reach the desired pumpkin shade. Adjust consistency with more milk (thinner) or powdered sugar (thicker).
  15. Drizzle or spread glaze over warm rolls.
  16. Insert a pretzel stick in the center of each roll for the “stem.”
