Ingredients
- DOUGH:
- 1 cup almond milk, warm
- 1 packet of yeast
- 1/4 cup canned pumpkin
- 2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
- 1/2 cup organic unbleached all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 cup NuNaturals NuStevia Sweetenerâ„¢ Baking Blend, or their MoreFiberâ„¢ Baking Blend
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- FILLING:
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons Earth Balance (or other dairy free margarine), softened
- 2 teaspoons raisins (optional)
- ICING:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 3 teaspoons almond milk
- 1 splash of vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Dissolve yeast in warm almond milk. Set aside.
- Combine whole wheat flour, spices, NuStevia Sweetener™, baking powder and salt. In separate bowl, combine filling ingredients and set aside.
- After yeast and almond milk is foamy (approximately 5 to 8 minutes or so), stir in pumpkin.
- Add wet ingredients to dry and stir until a dough forms. Turn dough out onto floured bread board and knead for approximately 1 minute (about 20 times). Knead in as much extra flour (1/4 cup) as necessary so that dough is no longer sticky.
- Roll dough into a large rectangle. Sprinkle filling over dough and roll dough up firmly to make log. Cut log into six equal pieces and place in loaf pan sprayed with cooking spray.
- Either cover rolls and place in refrigerator overnight, or if planning to bake immediately, let dough rise in a warm place for at least 40 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bake rolls for 23 minutes. Drizzle with the icing.
