Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls

Pumpkin, I love you.  If I didn't, I wouldn't have had to make this recipe twice in the same day just to get it right.  Apparently, the first try was a fail and the yeast didn't like me.  Really it was my fault.  You really shouldn't scald your dry active yeast.   Not a good idea.  So needless to say, they didn't rise at all and the dough didn't absorb any of the yummy goodness inside - lesson learned. 

This recipe was tweaked to how I was taught by my momma to make cinnamon rolls.  Let me just say that over the years, I think my mom has perfected her recipe.  There are few that compare to her fluffy, sweet, delicious cinnamon rolls.  I really think that the little small steps bring the 'love' to the rolls and make them that much better.  The bread is a little denser than normal cinnamon rolls, but I think I could eat these all year.  This one is added to my must make pumpkin recipes in October.  Enjoy!
