| Ingredients | Quantity |
|---|---|
| All-purpose flour | 4 cups |
| Instant yeast | 2 ¼ teaspoons |
| Sugar | ¼ cup |
| Salt | 1 teaspoon |
| Warm water (110°F) | 1 ½ cups |
| Unsalted butter | ¼ cup (melted) |
| Egg | 1 large |
| Pumpkin puree | ½ cup |
| Ground cinnamon | ½ teaspoon |
| Ground nutmeg | ¼ teaspoon |
| Green bell pepper (optional for stems) | 1 |
Cooking Steps Summary:
- In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast; let it sit until frothy, about 5-10 minutes.
- In another bowl, mix flour, salt, pumpkin puree, cinnamon, and nutmeg; add melted butter and egg to the yeast mixture.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, kneading until a soft dough forms.
- Cover the dough with a clean towel and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into small balls; shape each ball into a pumpkin by creating a rounded body and pinching the top slightly.
- Place the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let them rise again for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Before baking, use a knife to create lines on the rolls to resemble pumpkin ridges.

- For extra decoration, attach small green bell pepper pieces to the tops of the rolls to mimic pumpkin stems. Enjoy!
