    Fall is in the air and I couldn’t be more excited! Autumn is my favorite season with the cooler weather and colorful foliage. The leaves on some of the trees in our area have already started to change color and the air has a hint of crispness.

    So today I’m sharing a recipe for crescent roll pumpkin cinnamon rolls that remind me of all the things I love about fall!

    Recipe Tips

    1. Can these be made with granulated sugar instead of brown sugar? Yes, you can substitute the brown sugar with an equal amount of granulated sugar.

    2. Would nuts be good in these cinnamon rolls? Yes! Try adding either chopped walnut or pecans.

    3. What can I use instead of a cast iron skillet? Try baking them in a 9-inch pie pan or a 9×9-inch square pan.

      I made these last week for my coworkers. My free time was sporadic, so I ended up completing the recipe through step 4, then put the rolls (uncut) into the fridge for a few hours. When I came back, some of the liquid (from the pumpkin I assume) had seeped out of the rolls and into the pan. I thought it was done for, as the dough appeared pretty soggy at the bottom. But, I pulled them out, dried up most of the seeped liquid, and pushed on. I had to cut them carefully, but ultimately they baked up just fine in a glass 9×13 and 9×9. I skipped the caramel sauce, but did the glaze, and everybody loved them! Thanks again Tonia!

        Good morning! Half-n-half is described as half cream in other countries. Hope that helps! ~Tonia
