Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine warm milk, instant yeast, and light brown sugar. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
Add in flour, ground cinnamon, salt, pumpkin puree, melted butter, and beaten egg. Mix until it forms a soft dough.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth. Form it into a ball and place it in an oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel.
In a separate bowl, mix together light brown sugar, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves. Set this mixture aside to use later when rolling out the dough.
Once your dough has doubled in size (about 60 minutes), preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
On a floured surface, roll out the dough into an approximate rectangle measuring about 12×18 inches.
Spread room temperature butter over the rolled-out dough and sprinkle the filling mixture evenly across.
Starting from one long edge of the rectangle, tightly roll up the dough into a log shape.
Slice into 6 equal pieces and place them in a greased baking dish. Allow them to rise again for about 30 minutes before baking.
Bake in preheated oven for about 25–30 minutes until golden brown.
While rolls bake, beat together room temperature butter with powdered sugar until creamy. Add maple syrup, vanilla extract, milk, salt, egg yolk, and water; mix until smooth.
Once baked rolls are slightly cooled, drizzle or spread frosting over warm rolls before serving!
