Pumpkin Spice Cinnamon Rolls

It’s pumpkin time and I couldn’t be happier!  I don’t know why I wait until fall to make these rolls but I always do. I always buy extra cans of pumpkin to get me through to the next season at the beginning of pumpkin season also. I’ve been seeing on the news that there might be a shortage of pumpkins this year for pie pumpkin so be sure to get yours. What’s Thanksgiving without Pumpkin Pie?

These rolls are full of my favorite flavors, ginger and cardamon. Then they are filled with a cinnamon, brown sugar and butter filling. They are light and so moist you almost don’t even need the frosting. Since I think there is a law somewhere that says they must be frosted I just made a light glaze to go over the tops while they are still warm. If you love lots of gooey frosting this isn’t the frosting recipe for you. I’d use my cream cheese frosting recipe here. You might need to add a tablespoon or 2 of milk to the frosting.
