    There’s just something about homemade bread.

    But I know it can be intimidating to make homemade bread, from scratch. If you’ve never done it before, fret no more. I’ve got detailed “by hand” directions for making the dough below. If you have a bread machine, you have no excuse 😉 You can use the dough cycle to make the dough and then form the rolls, let them rise and then bake them.

    This recipe for Homemade Pumpkin Dinner Rolls calls for just a little pumpkin puree. It’s a great way to use up any extra leftover pumpkin you might have from another recipe! It gives just a lovely extra touch of flavor to the rolls. Top them off with a smidge of rosemary and you’ve got yourself some spectacular homemade rolls to serve your family and friends this Thanksgiving!
