These croissant-shaped dinner rolls are my favorite Easy, Soft and Fluffy Pumpkin Dinner Rolls to make this fall. They are not only soft and buttery but also fun and easy to make. Perfect for a party dinner or casual family get-together! For this recipe, I use homemade pumpkin purée, but you can substitute your favorite store-bought brand to save time.
To make these savory dinner rolls, you will need only a few simple ingredients. And it’s likely you already have all of them in your kitchen. Plus, the recipe is really easy to make. Once the dough is proofed, forming the rolls is as simple as rolling out the dough and cutting it into triangles. And the perfect little roll is just a few steps and an oven away! Enjoy!
To make the Easy, Soft and Fluffy Pumpkin Dinner Rolls, you will need the following ingredients:
In a bowl, combine 1 cup water with ¼ cup organic or white sugar and 1 tablespoon active dry yeast and stir until the sugar is melted. Place in a warm spot while you proceed with the following steps.
Measure out 5 cups flour and sift in a large bowl. Set aside.
In a bowl, combine 2 large eggs and 1 egg yolk.
Add eggs to the yeast mixture.
Add in ½ cup pumpkin purée and ½ teaspoon sea salt and whisk until combined.
Using the dough hook attachment on low/medium speed, mix in half flour.
Mix in 4 ounces softened unsalted butter.
Mix in the remaining flour ½ cup at a time. Mix until the dough is not sticking to the bowl.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, make a few holes in the plastic so the dough can breathe, and leave to rise for 1 hour in a warm spot.
Preheat the oven to 325 °F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Once the dough has tripled in size, gently knock out the air and transfer to a dusted with flour working surface. Roll the dough into a log and divide into 4 equal portions.
Working with one portion of the dough at a time, roll it into a circle and cut into 12 equal triangles. Roll each triangle starting from the wide side into a croissant-shaped roll.
Place the rolls onto the prepared baking sheets. Beat 1 egg white with 2 tablespoon water, and gently brush each roll. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Bake the rolls for 17 minutes or until golden.
Once baked, transfer to a wire rack to cool.
Serve warm and enjoy!
