Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup warm milk
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
  • 1 teaspoon SAF Instant yeast (this is what I use)
  • 1 teaspoon Dough Enhancer (optional-it makes the rolls fluffy)
  • 1/2 scant teaspoon salt
  • 4 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 4 tablespoons water
  • 1-3/4 to 2 cups white all purpose flour (I use bread flour)
Instructions
  1. 1. Grease a 10-inch round cake pan and set it aside.

    2. Grab a bowl and a Danish Whisk.

    3. Dump everything in a large greased bowl or bowl of a stand mixer. Stir until mixed thoroughly.

    4. Add additional flour if needed to the dough if the dough is too sticky. Don't add too much, we want the dough fluffy.

    5. Flour your countertop or work surface and scoop the dough out. Knead for about 3-4 minutes.

    6. Cut the dough into 8 equal pieces (never stretch your dough).

    7. Take each section and mound into a smooth ball and place the eight balls in the greased pan.

    8. Cover with plastic wrap or a warm wet towel.

    9. Let rise for about an hour. Preheat the oven to (350°F) = (176°C) degrees.

    10. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until slightly golden brown. Slightly brush melted butter over the tops after baking if you want a softer dinner roll. Or use a baggie slathered with butter to spread on the warm rolls.

    11. Let cool. Store in bags to keep the dinner rolls soft. Enjoy.
