Wake up to Pumpkin Butter-Pecan Rolls with Pumpkin Spice Glaze, an easy and delicious breakfast treat!
Happy Thanksgiving Week!
How about a last minute easy breakfast treat, full of pumpkin spice flavor?
These rolls are the perfect weekend treat with family in town or to treat for yourself
after all the cooking and cleaning in anticipation of your Thanksgiving feast.
Prepare to be wowed at how easy and delicious these sweet rolls are!
To make these rolls I used a jar of
Slow Cooker Maple Pumpkin Butter.
It’s ready in a couple of hours after simmering in your slow cooker.
It makes a delicious spread for your morning toast,
stirred into oatmeal, yogurt, pancake or waffle batter.
Your house will smell wonderful while it’s simmering away too!

Feel free to use a store brand of pumpkin butter for the convenience.
I think any of these fruit butters would be delicious.
Apple butter would be wonderful too if you have some in the fridge.
Here are the quick and easy steps, the most time consuming part of these rolls is thawing your puff pastry.
I used Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry. Follow the directions on the box for thawing,
overnight in the fridge or on the counter at room temperature for 30 – 40 minutes
until you can unfold it.
Unfold one pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface with the folds going left to right.
Use a rolling pin to lightly press out creases from folds.
Add a thin layer of pumpkin butter, spreading with offset spatula,
leaving a 1-inch border on the puff pastry. Sprinkle with chopped pecans.
Trim the ends of the roll about ½ inch and discard. Slice the roll in 6 equal pieces.
Place each piece spiral side up, filling 6 wells of a 12-cup standard muffin pan.
Repeat with the second piece of puff pastry.
To make these rolls doubly delicious, top them with Pumpkin Spice Glaze!

Yummy 😋! Thanks for the recipe. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones.
As always, your timing is perfect! I may have overindulged on the apple caramel and pumpkin flavored butter purchases this year and I was wondering last night how best to use them all. My daughter arrived home from college last night. I’m making these now so she’ll wake up to this delicious treat! Thanks for the quick treat, yum!
Oh My Goodness! I’ll be making these! These look not only pretty but delicious!
Thank you!
They sound fantastic Mary, would love to have one or two with my morning coffee! Happy Thanksgiving:@)
Thank you Mary! Looking forward to making these for the Thanksgiving holiday. So thankful for your beautiful blog, have a Happy Thanksgiving 🧡
These sound so good! YUM! Am pinning! I think I would still bake that little end piece and slather it in the pumpkin butter when it was done baking for a little extra bite, hehe. Thank you Mary for another winner, I’m sure. Over the weekend I will be baking my favorite of your recipes, the pecan muffins—oh SO good! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. Hug the pups for me! 🦃🍊🐾♥️ (p.s. My beautiful Turkey handle 6 piece serving piece is on display ready for use as well as my Tom Turkey plates strutting their stuff, thanks to you! Love my gifts! Love you!)
